Ave Maria, O Maiden, O Mother,
fondly thy children are calling on thee;
thine are the graces unclaimed by another,
sinless and beautiful Star of the sea.
Mater amabilis, ora pro nobis,
pray for thy children who call upon thee;
Ave Sunctissima, Ave Purissima,
sinless and beautiful Star of the sea.
Ave Maria, the night shades are falling,
softly, our voices arise unto thee;
earth’s lonely exiles for succour are calling,
sinless and beautiful Star of the sea.
Mater amabilis, ora pro nobis,
pray for thy children who call upon thee;
Ave Sunctissima, Ave Purissima,
sinless and beautiful Star of the sea.
Ave Maria, thy children are kneeling,
words of endearment are murmured to thee;
softly thy spirit upon us is stealing,
sinless and beautiful Star of the sea.
Mater amabilis, ora pro nobis,
pray for thy children who call upon thee;
Ave Sunctissima, Ave Purissima,
sinless and beautiful Star of the sea.
