Charles Gounod - Ave Maria

Ave Maria! Maiden mild
Oh! Listen to a maidens prayer
For thou canst hear them in the wild
Tis thou, tis thou canst hear amid despair
We slumbered safely 'til the morrow

Though we, by men outcast, reviled
Oh maiden, see a maidens sorrow
Oh mother, hear a suppliant child!
Ave Maria, ahh

Ave Maria
Gratia plena
Maria, gratia plena
Maria, gratia plena
Ave, ave Dominus
Dominus tecum

The murky caverns air so heavy
Shall breathe of balm if thou hast smiled
Oh maiden, hear a maiden pleading
Oh mother, hear a suppliant child!
Ave Maria
