Gabriel's Message

The angel Gabriel from heaven came,
His wings as drifted snow, his eyes as flame;
"All hail," said he, "thou lowly maiden Mary,
Most highly favored lady," Gloria!

"For know a blessed Mother thou shalt be,
All generations laud and honor thee,
Thy Son shall be Emmanuel, by seers foretold,
Most highly favored lady," Gloria!

Then gentle Mary meekly bowed her head,
"To me be as it pleaseth God," she said,
"My soul shall laud and magnify his holy Name."
Most highly favored lady, Gloria!

Of her, Emmanuel, the Christ, was born
In Bethlehem, all on a Christmas morn,
And lowly men throughout the world will ever say--
"Most highly favored lady," Gloria!

Le message de Gabriel

L'ange Gabriel est descendu du ciel,
Ses ailes comme de la neige, ses yeux comme des flammes ;
"Salutations," dit-il, "toi, humble vierge Marie,
Dame très favorisée," Gloire !

"Car sache que tu seras une mère bénie,
Toutes les générations te loueront et t'honoreront,
Ton Fils sera Emmanuel, comme l'ont prédit les voyants,
Dame très favorisée," Gloire !

Alors la douce Marie inclina humblement la tête,
"Que cela soit selon la volonté de Dieu," dit-elle,
"Mon âme louera et magnifiera son saint Nom."
Dame très favorisée, Gloire !

D'elle, Emmanuel, le Christ, est né
À Bethléem, un matin de Noël,
Et les hommes humbles du monde entier diront toujours--
"Dame très favorisée," Gloire !
