O Most Holy Virgin, Mother of the Lord of the highest powers, Queen of heaven and earth, our city and country, our all-powerful Intercessor! Receive this song of praise from us, unworthy Thy servants, and lift up our prayers to the throne of God Thy Son, that He may be merciful to our iniquities and add His grace to those who honor Thy all-honorable name and with faith and love worship Thy most pure [or miraculous] image. We are not worthy of being pardoned by Him, unless You propitiate Him for us, Lady, for all things are possible for You from Him.

For this reason, we resort to You, as to our undoubted and quick Intercessor: hear us praying to You, surprise us with Your great and rich mercy, show us Your heavenly help and intercession, and ask God Your Son as our shepherd for zeal and vigilance for souls, as a city ruler for wisdom and strength, as judges of truth and impartiality, reason and humility as a mentor, love and harmony for spouses, obedience for children, patience for those who are offended, fear of God for those who are offended, complacency for those who mourn, abstinence for those who rejoice: the spirit of reason and piety, the spirit of mercy and meekness, the spirit of purity and truth have been sent down to us all. Hey, Most Holy Lady! Have mercy on Thy weak people: gather the scattered, guide the erring on the right path, heal the sick, support old age, bring up the youth with integrity, raise infants, and look upon us all with the mercy of Thy intercession: raise us up from the depths of sin and Enlighten the eyes of our hearts to the vision of salvation.

Be merciful to us here and at the Last Judgment of Your Son: having ceased in faith and repentance from this life, our fathers and brothers will live in eternal life with the angels and with all the saints. For you are, Lady, the glory of heaven and the hope of earth, You, according to God, are our Hope and Intercessor of all those who flow to You with faith. We therefore pray to You, and to You, as the Almighty Helper, we commit ourselves and each other and our whole life, now and ever and unto ages of ages.
