Und unser lieben Frauen, der traumet ihr ein Traum
wie unter ihrem Herzen gewachsen wär ein Baum.

Und wie der Baum ein Schatten gäb wohl über alle Land:
Herr Jesus Christ der Heiland, also ist er genannt.

Herr Jesus Christ der Heiland ist unser Heil und Trost,
mit seiner bittern Marter hat er uns all erlöst.

English.png English translation by Catherine Winkworth

Our Lady lay a-sleeping
And dreamed a dream, as e'er 'tis said:
That there beneath her heart lay
A tree that grew with branches outspread.

And lo, the tree its shadow gave
To shelter ev'ry, ev'ry land:
Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour,
That tree is he, and aye shall stand.

Lord Jesus Christ, our saving health,
Hears us when we call:
By his most bitter Passion
He hath redeemed us all.
