 Beauteous Virgin, by the sun arrayed, crowned with stars by the sun supreme, pleased, indeed, in thee his light to hide;
 Love moves me to address my words to thee, but I know not how to begin without thy aid, and His who lovingly resided in thee.
 I call on thee, who ever dost respond to all who call in faith.
 Virgin, have pity on the wretchedness of human plight.
 Thou has never turned away, O hear me now.
 Help me in my struggle, though I am of earth and thou art Queen of Heaven.
