ave Maria

Immaculate Mary, your praises we sing,
You reign now in heaven with Jesus, our King.


(Refrain)
Ave, ave, ave Maria,�
Ave, ave, ave Maria.


In heaven, the blessed your glory proclaim: On earth,�
we your children invoke your fair name.


Your name is our power, your virtues our light,
Your love is our comfort, your pleading our might.


We pray for our mother, the Church upon earth,
And bless, dearest lady, the land of our birth.
