German and Latin.

Although technically correct, "German and Latin" is not very accurate, since about 80% of the text is in Medieval Latin, less than 20% is in Middle High German and the rest (a few verses) is in Old Provençal. Some sections are written macaronicly; first Latin Text, then a German version, as demonstrated in "Floret silva nobilis":

Hinc equitavit, / eia, quis me amabit?

Der ist geriten hinnen, o wi, wer sol mich minnen?

(He rode from here, hey, who shall love me?)
