Blessed be the happy mother

Blessed be the happy mother,

Who so sweetly bore you,

So chosen for beauty,

My longing flies to you!

You so sweet of gesture,

You the fairest on earth,

You my treasure, my bliss,

Sweet, blessed are you!

When from afar I languish and

Consider your beauty,

See how I tremble and groan,

That I can hardly hide it!

And powerfully within my breast

I feel flames rebelling

That destroy my peace,

Ah, madness seizes me!
