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 Your most pure [or miraculous] image. For we are not worthy of mercy from 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 speedy Intercessor: hear us praying to You, overshadowing us with Your all-powerful protection, and ask God Your Son for our shepherd zeal and vigilance for souls, for the city ruler wisdom and strength, for judging truth and impartiality, for a mentor reason and humility, for a husband love and consent, obedience for children, patience for those who are offended, fear of God for those who are offended, good spirit for those who grieve, abstinence for those who rejoice, for us all the spirit of reason and piety, the spirit of mercy and meekness, the spirit of purity and truth.
Hey, Most Holy Lady! Have mercy on Thy weak people: gather the scattered, guide the erring on the right path, support old age, make young chaste, raise infants, and look upon all of us with the gaze of Thy merciful 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 there, in the land of earthly arrival 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 according to Christ God, now and ever and unto ages of ages.
