**Hail, holy Queen, **
**mother of mercy, **
**our life, our sweetness, **
**and our hope. **
**To thee do we cry, **
**poor banished children of Eve. **
**To thee do we send up our sighs, mourning **
and weeping in this valley of tears.
**Turn then, most gracious advocate, **
thine eyes of mercy toward us,
**and after this our exile **
**show unto us the blessed fruit of thy 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.
