Memorare

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,


that never was it known


that anyone who fled to thy protection,


implored thy help or sought thy intercession was left unaided.


Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother.


To thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful.


O Mother of the Word Incarnate,


despise not my petition, but in your mercy


hear and answer me. Amen
