Ave Maria (Ellens Dritter Gesang) Lyrics

Ave Maria
Maiden mild
Oh, listen to a maiden's prayer
For thou canst hear amid the wild
'Tis thou, 'tis thou canst save amid, despair

We slumber safely till the morrow
Though we've by man outcast reviled
Oh maiden, see a maiden's sorrow
Oh mother, hear a suppliant child

Ave Maria
Maiden mild

Ave Maria
Gratia plena
Maria gratia plena
Maria gratia plena
Ave ave dominus
Dominus tecum

The murky cavern's air so heavy
Shall breathe of balm if thou hast smiled
Oh maiden, hear a maiden pleadin'
Oh mother, hear a suppliant child

Ave Maria
Maiden mild
Ave Maria
Maiden mild
