O suver maecht van Ysrael
Dutch carol, anonymous, 15th century
The text speaks of ‘the great message’ to the ‘pure Virgin’ Mary, the journey of Joseph and Mary to Bethlehem and the birth of Jesus. The Middle-Dutch text is supplemented with phrases in Latin resulting in particularly beautiful lines such as Du bist uns Dominus. A verse with a mixture of languages in this manner is called in Dutch a mengdicht or mengeldicht (literally a ‘mix-poem’). (arr.: Sybolt de Jong)

Dutch carol, anonymous, 15th century
Benedicta tu in mulieribus
O suver maecht van Ysrael,
wilt seer verbliden u
om der schoner bootschap,
die ic u brenghe nu.
Benedicta tu in mulieribus
Al mitter bootschap schone
die denghel heeft ghedaen,
hebdi van shemels trone
den Heilighen Gheest ontfaen.
Benedicta tu in mulieribus
Maria ende Joseph mede
voeren beide tsamen
tot Bethlehem der stede,
daer si haer herbergh namen.
Benedicta tu in mulieribus
Daer baerde die suverlike
den Here ghebenedijt
van hemel end' aertrike:
lof si haer talre tijt.
te Deum laudamus,
valasus, valasus,
swighet soete Jesus,
du bist ons dominus.
Te Deum laudamus!
