Maria durch ein Dornwald ging

Maria durch ein Dornwald ging

Germany, 19th century

---

1. Maria walks amid the thorn, Kyrie eleison. Maria walks amid the thorn,
   which seven years no leaf has borne. Jesus and Maria.
2. What ‘neath her heart doth Mary bear? Kyrie eleison. A little child doth
   Mary bear, beneath her heart he nestles there. Jesus and Maria.
3. And as the two are passing near, Kyrie eleison. Lo! roses on the thorns appear,
   Lo! roses on the thorns appear. Jesus and Maria.
