by Guido (Pieter Theodoor Jozef) Gezelle (1830 - 1899)
Translation Singable translation by Elisabeth Alberdingk Thijm

Maria, nooit geschonden
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
Maria, nooit geschonden,
Maria, nooit vereend
in schuld of schâ van zonden,
hoe komt het dat zi weent?
Komt allen, komt en ziet,
die weent en hebt verdriet,
en vraegt: O Maegd Maria,
veracht onz' klachten niet!

Zi sterft van niet te sterven
aen 't kruus met Hem, en tracht
vergifnis meê te werven
met Hem, voor ons geslacht!
Komt allen, komt en ziet etc.

Eens „Fiat“ sprak dar herte,
en 't bleef, deur al dien rouw,
deur al die zee van smerte,
dit woord en ons getrouw!
Komt allen, komt en ziet etc.

Omtrent het Kruus des Heeren,
Calvarie-Konigin,
o sterke Maegd vol eeren,
bliift ons een biistandin.
Komt allen, komt en ziet etc.

Unsere Liebe Fraue von den Sieben Schmerzen
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Dutch (Nederlands) 
Maria, unbeflecket,
Maria, die sich nie
mit Sünd' und Schand' bedecket,
warum, ach, weinet sie?
Kommt alle, die sie liebt,
die weint und seid betrübt,
und fleht: O Magd Maria,
verschmäh' die Klage nicht!

Ach, dürfte sie doch sterben
am Kreuz mit ihrem Sohn!
Verzeihung für uns werben
mit ihm vor Gottes Thron!
Kommt alle, die sie liebt etc.

Einst „Fiat“ sprach das Herze,
und 's blieb, in all dem Leid,
in jenem Meer von Schmerze
uns treu für alle Zeit.
Kommt alle, die sie liebt etc.

Beim Kreuze uns'res Herren,
du Schmerzenskönigin,
o starke Magd voll Ehren,
sei uns're Helferin!
Kommt alle, die sie liebt etc.
