Sei la speranza, o tutta Santa:
prega, prega per i figli tuoi.

grandi cose, Maria !
Tu sei la Madre del Salvatore:

prega, prega per i figli tuoi.

1. Our holiest, most merciful mother, Mary,
You, who were preserved without stain,
pray, pray for your children.

2. You who were blessed and chosen
from among all women, Mary,
in you there is hope, most holy one:
pray, pray for your children.

3. The Lord has achieved great things
in you, Mary!
You are the Saviour's mother:
pray, pray for your children.

4. You are queen of Heaven,
blessed Mary.
We love you, we call upon you:
pray, pray for your children.
