Palastinalied

Aluerst lebe ich mir werde
Sit min suendig ouge siht
Daz reine lant unde ouch die erde
Der man so vil eren giht
Es ist geschehen des ich ie bat
Ich bin komen an die stat
Da got menschlichen trat
Schoeniv lant rich unde here
Swaz ich der noch han gesehen
So bist dus aller ere
Waz ist wunders hie geschehen
Das ein magt ein kint gebar
Here uber aller engel schar
Waz das niht ein wunder gar
Hie lies er sich reine toufen
Daz der mensche reine si
Do lies er sich hie verkoufen
Daz wir eigen wurden fri
Anders weren wir verloren
Wol dir sper kriuce unde dorn
Wie dir ze den ist din zorn
Aluerst lebe ich mir werde
Sit min suendig ouge siht
Daz reine lant unde ouch die erde
Der man so vil eren giht
Es ist geschehen des ich ie bat
Ich bin komen an die stat
Da got menschlichen trat

Crusaders' Hymn

Now I live in great joy
Since my sinful eyes have seen
The pure land and also the soil
Of which one speaks so highly
That which I always prayed for has happened
I have come to the place
Where God walked as a man
Beautiful, rich, and powerful country
What I have seen of you
Is the greatest of all honors
What a miracle has happened here
That a virgin bore a child
The Lord of all angels
Was that not a great wonder
Here he let himself be baptized
So that mankind would be pure
Here he let himself be sold
So that we could become free
Otherwise we would be lost
Woe to you, spear, cross, and crown of thorns
How could you be so cruel to Him
Now I live in great joy
Since my sinful eyes have seen
The pure land and also the soil
Of which one speaks so highly
That which I always prayed for has happened
I have come to the place
Where God walked as a man
