Maria Durch Ein' Dornwald Ging
Maria durch ein' Dornwald ging.
Kyrieleison!
Maria durch ein' Dornwald ging,
Der hatte in sieben Jahr'n kein Laub getragen!
Jesus und Maria.
Was trug Maria unterm Herzen?
Kyrieleison!
Ein kleines Kindlein ohne Schmerzen,
Das trug Maria unter ihrem Herzen.
Jesus und Maria.

Da haben die Dornen Rosen getrag'n;
Kyrieleison!
Als das Kindlein durch den Wald getragen,
Da haben die Dornen Rosen getragen!
Jesus und Maria.
Mary Wandered Through A Wood Of Thorns
Mary wandered through a wood of thorns,
Lord, have mercy.
Mary wandered through a wood of thorns,
Which was leafless for seven years.
Jesus and Mary.
Who did Mary bear beneath her bosom?
Lord, have mercy.
A little babe without pain,
Whom Mary bore beneath her bosom.
Jesus and Mary.
The thorns had roses there,
Lord, have mercy.
As the babe was carried through the woods,
There were roses with thorns on them.
Jesus and Mary.
