    popular Marian antiphon; St. Bernard of Clairvaux, Adhemar de Monteil, Bishop
    of Le Puy (ca 1080 AD), and Peter of Compostela (930 AD). Herman Contractus,

    Translation Spanish/English Gerard F. Vierling

    Hail Holy Queen Mother of Mercy


    our life our sweetness and our hope
    With thee do we pray pilgrims on our way to the Lord
    To thee do we turn yearning and trusting in all our needs
    Turn then , most gracious advocate , thine eyes of mercy
    Toward us
    Soon answer our longing and hope for the blessed
    Fruit of thy womb , Jesus
    Oh clement, oh loving, oh sweet Virgin Mary
    Pray for us , oh Holy Mother of God ,
    That we may be made worthy of the promises of our Lord
    Jesus Christ
