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, 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.
