Ave Maria Maiden mild O listen to a maiden's prayer For thou can't hear amid the wild Tis thou, tis thou can't save amid despair We slumber safely 'til the morrow Tho' we, by men, outcast, reviled O maiden see a maiden's sorrow O mother, hear a suppliant child Ave Maria Ave Maria Undefiled The flinty couch whereon we're sleeping Shall seem with down of eider piled If thou above, sweet, watch our keeping The murky cavern's air's so heavy Shall breathe of balm if thou hast smiled O maiden hear a maiden's pleading O mother, hear a suppliant child Ave Maria Ave Maria Stainless styled O fiends of air and earth the essence From this their wonted haunt exiled Shall flee before thy holy presence We bow beneath our care so laden To thy dear guidance reconciled Then hear, o maiden, simple maiden And for a father hear a child Ave Maria From Letras Mania
