Ave Maria German translation by Adam Storck from The Lady of the Lake by Sir Walter Scott Ave Maria! Ave Maria! maiden mild! Listen to a maidens prayer! Thou canst hear though from the wild, Thou canst save amid despair. Safe may we sleep beneath thy care, Though banishd, outcast and reviled - Maiden! hear a maidens prayer; Mother, hear a suppliant child! Ave Maria! Ave Maria! undefiled! The flinty couch we now must share Shall seem this down of eider piled, If thy protection hover there. The murky caverns heavy air Shall breathe of balm if thou hast smiled; Then, Maiden! hear a maidens prayer; Mother, list a suppliant child! Ave Maria! Ave Maria! stainless styled! Foul demons of the earth and air, From this their wonted haunt exiled, Shall flee before thy presence fair. We bow us to our lot of care, Beneath thy guidance reconciled; Hear for a maid a maidens prayer, And for a father hear a child! Ave Maria!
