Son of the Virgin Mary, hear us.

You gave Mary the joy of motherhood,

Son of the Virgin Mary, hear us.

King of peace, your kingdom is one of justice and peace,
— help us to seek the paths of peace.
Son of the Virgin Mary, hear us.

You came to make the human race the holy people of God,

Son of the Virgin Mary, hear us.

By your birth you strengthened family ties,

My piece also includes a Personal Message to my dear Readers.
