Lyrics
1. On earth we recall your joy and your pain, O Mother, whom we behold in glory and light. Lady of the Rosary, pray to God for us! 2. Hail, when you conceive, visit, give birth, and bring and receive your Jesus in the temple. 3. Hail, through agony, scourging, thorns and cross: the pain of prophecy leads you to glory. 4. Hail, upon your Son the Spirit comes to us; leaving our exile, you too ascend to heaven. 5. One hundred and fifty roses, nations, come to gather; weave luminous crowns for the Virgin Mother. Refrain: Lady of the Rosary, pray to God for us!
