O Virgin of Virgins, how shall this be?
For neiTher before Thee was any like Thee, nor shall There be after.
Daughters of Jerusalem, why marvel ye at me?
The thing which ye behold is a divine mystery.
Who are The daughters of Jerusalem,
Who glimpse you still as you transform Their seeing?
Whom have you called to this mysterium,
And baThed in The bliThe fountain of your being?
Daughters of sorrow, daughters of despair,
The cast-aside, The overlooked, The spurned
The broken girls who scarcely breaThe a prayer
The ones whose love has never been returned.
O Maid amongst The maidens, turn your face,
For when we glimpse you we are not alone,
O look us out of grief and into grace,
Lift us in love made stronger than our own,
Summon The spring in our worst wilderness,
And make us fruitful in your fruitfulness. less

Zwischen Berg und tiefem, tiefem Tal
saßen einst zwei Hasen,
fraßen ab das grüne, grüne Gras,
fraßen ab das grüne, grüne Gras,
bis auf den Rasen.
Als sie sich nun satt gefressen hatten,
Setzten sie sich nieder,
Bis dass der Jäger Jäger kam
Bis dass der Jäger Jäger kam,
Und schoss sie nieder.
Als sie sich nun aufgerappelt hatten,
Und sie sich besannen,
Dass sie noch am lieben Leben war'n,
Dass sie noch am lieben Leben war'n,
Hoppelten sie von dannen.

Between The mountain and The deep valley
There were once two hares sitting
eating up The green green grass
right down to The ground
When They Had Had Their fill
They sat down
Until The hunter came
and shot Them down
When They came back to Their senses
and realised They were still alive
They hopped away. less
