play/stop MIDI (This arr. attributed to don Cimatti)

1) Wenn ich ein Glöcklein wär,
laut (schön) wollt ich läuten.
Das sollte rings umher allen bedeuten:
Ave Maria, ave Maria, ave Maria!

2) Wenn ich ein Vöglein wär, schön wollt ich singen.
Bis in das Herz hinein sollt es erklingen:
Ave Maria, ave Maria, ave Maria!
 
3) Jungfrau, die Gott erhob, mög' Dir gefallen,
wenn ich zu Deinem Lob, lasse erschallen:
Ave Maria, ave Maria, ave Maria!
Dutch translation (source)
Als ik een klokje was
Blij zou ik luiden
Dan zou ik overal
uit willen duiden

Ave Maria, Ave Maria, Ave Maria
Als ik een vogel was
Luid zou ik zingen
Totdat het in ieders hart
Binnen zou dringen

Ave Maria, Ave Maria, Ave Maria
Als U mijn lied behaagt
God's uitverkoren
Moeder Maria Maagd
Laat ik weer horen

Ave Maria, Ave Maria, Ave Maria
