Original Text

Sancta Maria, succurre miseris,
juva pusillanimes,
refove flebiles.
Ora pro populo,
interveni pro clero,
intercede pro devoto femineo sexu.
Sentiant omnes tuum juvamen
quicumque celebrant
tuam sanctam commemorationem.

English Translation

Holy Mary, succor the poor,
aid the faint-hearted,
revive those who mourn.
Pray for the people,
intervene for the clergy,
intercede for women religious.
May all experience your aid
who celebrate
your holy commemoration.

Antiphon to the Magnificat; orig. St. Augustine
