Blessed One

Peace O bright Mother of Mercy
So pure and so brave
We honour your virtue
And dignity praise
Every angel salutes you,
The Earth calls you blessed.
We look to you Mother,
For mercy and rest
Ave! Ave!
Ave! Ave!
Ave! Ave!
Blessed one
God exalted you, daughter,
And called you in time
To offer your womb,
To bring forth the Divine
You were willing to serve
Though you knew not a man
You trusted in God
And said «Yes» to His plan
Ave! Ave!
Ave! Ave!
Ave! Ave!
Blessed one
Your consent to God’s Spirit
Was fruitful and free
Accepting God’s Son
In a great mystery
For the Lord, you remained ever
Virgin in faith
Delivered by doubt
And assisted by grace
Ave! Ave!
Ave! Ave!
Ave! Ave!
Blessed one
Now we hail you, O daughter
Of mercy and light
O pray we embrace peace
And good, love and right
You are splendid, enthroned
Above moon, star and Earth
O Queen of the Heavens
Your Son saved the world!
Ave! Ave!
Ave! Ave!
Ave! Ave!
Blessed one
Ave! Ave!
Ave! Ave!
Ave! Ave!
Blessed one
