Maria ging aus wandern
Language: German (Deutsch)
Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE ITA SPA
Maria ging aus wandern,
so fern ins fremde Land,
bis sie Gott den Herren fand.
Sie hat ihn schon gefunden
wohl vor des Herodes Haus,
er sah so betrüblich aus.
Das Kreuz, das musst' er tragen
nach Jerusalem vor die Stadt,
wo er gemartet ward.
Was trug er auf seinem Haupte?
Ein' scharfe Dornenkron';
das Kreuz, das trägt er schon.
Daran soll man bedenken,
ein jeder jung or alt,
dass das Himmelreich [leidet]1 Gewalt!

Marie sortit et alla errer
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
Marie sortit et alla errer,
Loin en pays étranger,
Jusqu'à trouver le Seigneur Dieu.
Elle le trouva bientôt,
Devant la maison de Hérode ;
Il semblait très affligé.
Il devait porter la croix
Jusque devant la ville de Jérusalem,
Où il fut martyrisé.
Que portait-il sur sa tête ?
Une couronne d'épines acérées ;
En plus de porter la croix.
De cela on peut considérer,
Que l'on soit jeune ou vieux,
Que le royaume des cieux souffre la violence !
