Ave Maria, über's Feld
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): ENG
Ave Maria, über's Feld
Ruft Glock' nach Glocke in die Welt.
Ave Maria, immerdar
In Lust und Freud', wie in Gefahr;
Ave Maria, allezeit,
Im Leben wie im Todesstreit!
Steck' aus dein Fähnlein, starke Maid,
Hilf uns im Weh, hilf uns im Streit!
Wir grüßen dich im Thränenthal,
Wir danken dir im Sternensaal.
Die Glocke läutet übers Feld,
In heil'gem Gruße ruht die Welt.

Ave Maria
Language: English  after the German (Deutsch)
Ave Maria, bell upon bell calls
Out into the world over the field.
Ave Maria, forevermore
In bliss and joy, as in danger;
Ave Maria, always
In life as in the battle of death!
Raise up Thy banner, strong maiden,
Help us in woe, help us in battle!
We greet Thee in this vale of tears,
We thank Thee in the vault of the stars.
The bell sounds over the field,
The world rests in holy greeting.
