Hail, Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy,
our life, our sweetness and our hope,
to you do we cry,
poor banished children of Eve;
to you do we send up our sighs,
mourning and weeping in this vale of tears;
turn, then most gracious Advocate,
your eyes of mercy toward us,
and after this, our exile,
show unto us the blessed fruit
of your womb, Jesus.
O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary!
Pray for us, O holy Mother of God,
that we may be made worthy of the
promises of Christ.
Amen.
