Ave Maria (舒伯特)

《萬福瑪利亞maan6 fuk1 maa5 lei6 aa3》（拉丁文：Ave Maria，當中 Ave 讀音似廣東話「掗菲aa6 fei1」－成句嘢係拉丁文入面「萬福瑪利亞」噉解）係由奧地利作曲家舒伯特喺 1825 年作嘅一首歌，係舒伯特最出名最受歡迎嘅作品之一。

1530 年奧地利一幅油畫描繪畫家想像中聖母瑪利亞抱住耶穌嘅情景。

《萬福瑪利亞》；伴奏係鋼琴，唱嘅人唱德文歌詞。

《萬福瑪利亞》係首浪漫詩歌（德文：Lied），最常見係由一位女高音喺一件樂器嘅伴奏下唱嘅，不過首歌都可以攞嚟做純器樂噉奏，又或者由女高音以外嘅歌手唱，例如舉世聞名嘅意大利男高音巴伐洛堤就喺 1994 年嗰陣公開演唱過呢首歌。

喺廿世紀至廿一世紀初嘅基督教地區，《萬福瑪利亞》有咁上下嘅文化影響力：呢首歌啲歌詞係喺度歌頌緊聖母瑪利亞（基督教入面最重要嘅人物之一）嘅純潔，有宗教意涵，而且首歌嘅旋律俾人覺得好祥和平靜，有安慰嘅效果；所以啲人成日都會攞呢首歌喺喪禮度唱或者播；除此之外，甚至仲有唔少大眾媒體產物（包括電影同電子遊戲）有攞呢首歌做佢哋配樂嘅一部份。

Storck's translation used by Schubert

"Hymn to the Virgin" by Sir Walter Scott

Ave Maria! Jungfrau mild, Erhöre einer Jungfrau Flehen, Aus diesem Felsen starr und wild Soll mein Gebet zu dir hinwehen. Wir schlafen sicher bis zum Morgen, Ob Menschen noch so grausam sind. O Jungfrau, sieh der Jungfrau Sorgen, O Mutter, hör ein bittend Kind! Ave Maria! Ave Maria! Unbefleckt! Wenn wir auf diesen Fels hinsinken Zum Schlaf, und uns dein Schutz bedeckt, Wird weich der harte Fels uns dünken. Du lächelst, Rosendüfte wehen In dieser dumpfen Felsenkluft. O Mutter, höre Kindes Flehen, O Jungfrau, eine Jungfrau ruft! Ave Maria! Ave Maria! Reine Magd! Der Erde und der Luft Dämonen, Von deines Auges Huld verjagt, Sie können hier nicht bei uns wohnen. Wir woll'n uns still dem Schicksal beugen, Da uns dein heil'ger Trost anweht; Der Jungfrau wolle hold dich neigen, Dem Kind, das für den Vater fleht. Ave Maria!

Ave Maria! maiden mild! Listen to a maiden's prayer! Thou canst hear though from the wild; Thou canst save amid despair. Safe may we sleep beneath thy care, Though banish'd, outcast and reviled – Maiden! hear a maiden's prayer; Mother, hear a suppliant child! Ave Maria! Ave Maria! undefiled! The flinty couch we now must share Shall seem with down of eider piled, If thy protection hover there. The murky cavern's heavy air Shall breathe of balm if thou hast smiled; Then, Maiden! hear a maiden's prayer, Mother, list a suppliant child! Ave Maria! Ave Maria! stainless styled. Foul demons of the earth and air, From this their wonted haunt exiled, Shall flee before thy presence fair. We bow us to our lot of care, Beneath thy guidance reconciled; Hear for a maid a maiden's prayer, And for a father hear a child! Ave Maria!

Latin Catholic prayer version

Ave Maria, gratia plena, Maria, gratia plena, Maria, gratia plena, Ave, Ave, Dominus, Dominus tecum. Benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus, Et benedictus fructus ventris (tui), Ventris tui, Jesus. Ave Maria! Sancta Maria, Mater Dei, Ora pro nobis peccatoribus, Ora, ora pro nobis; Ora, ora pro nobis peccatoribus, Nunc et in hora mortis, In hora mortis nostrae. In hora, hora mortis nostrae, In hora mortis nostrae. Ave Maria!

Hail Mary, full of grace, Mary, full of grace, Mary, full of grace, Hail, Hail, the Lord The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed, Blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Thy womb, Jesus. Hail Mary! Holy Mary, Mother of God, Pray for us sinners, Pray, pray for us; Pray for us sinners, Now, and at the hour of our death, The hour of our death. The hour, the hour of our death, The hour of our death. Hail Mary!
