Der Songtext "Ave Maria" von Barbara Bonney hat eine tiefe religiöse Bedeutung. Es ist ein Gebet an die Jungfrau Maria, ...

Ave Maria! Maiden mild!
Listen to a maiden's pleading
From these rocks, stark and wild,
My prayer shall be wafted to thee.
We shall sleep safely till morning,
Though men be ever so cruel.
O Maiden, see a maiden's distress,
O Mother, hear a suppliant child.

Ave Maria, undefiled!
When we upon this rock lie down
To slumber, and they protection covers us,
The hard stone will seem soft to us.
If Though smilest, the scent of roses will float
Through this murky cavern,
O Mother, hear a child's petition,
O maiden, 'tis a maid that calls!

Ave Maria, Maiden pure,
The demons of the earth and air,
Drien forth by thy gracious glance
Cannot stay here with us.
We will camly bow to fate
Since they holy comfort hovers over us;
Mayest though be favourably inclined to the maiden,
To the child that pleads for her father!
