Die du Gott gebarst, du Reine
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Spanish (Español)
Our translations: CAT ENG FRE
Die du Gott gebarst, du Reine,
Und alleine
Uns gelöst aus unsern Ketten,
Mach mich fröhlich, der ich weine,
Denn nur deine
Huld und Gnade mag uns retten.
Herrin, ganz zu dir mich wende,
Daß sich ende
Diese Qual und dieses Grauen,
Daß der Tod mich furchtlos fände,
Und nicht blende
Mich das Licht der Himmelsauen.
Weil du unbefleckt geboren,
Auserkoren
Zu des ew'gen Ruhmes Stätten
Wie mich Leiden auch um floren,
Unverloren
Bin ich doch, willst du mich retten.

Toi qui as porté Dieu, Immaculée
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
Toi qui as porté Dieu, Immaculée,
Toi l'unique,
Qui nous délivres de nos chaînes,
Rends-moi heureux, moi qui pleure,
Car seules ta
Grâce et ta pitié
Peuvent nous sauver.
Dame, je me tourne tout entier vers toi,
Que cessent
Cette angoisse et cette horreur,
Que la mort me trouve sans crainte,
Et que je ne sois pas aveuglé
Par la lumière des prairies célestes.
Toi qui es née sans péché,
Élue
Pour la gloire éternelle,
Bien que les chagrins m'assaillent,
Perdu,
Je ne le suis pas encore, si tu veux me sauver.
