Lovely Lady, protect me from my enemies,
Who hide in the darkest of shadows;
With the explosive grenades of gossip
They seek to kill my reputation.
Yet I rejoice that you will cheerfully guide
Me to the happy hills of Heaven;
I look forward to embracing you there,
Surrounded by goodness and sweetness.
I salute you with joy, most noble Virgin,
You who point me towards the Light;
As the princess of patience and prudence,
You smile as you lead me home.
Pray that my heart will be purged forever,
Cleansed from all evil inclinations;
Help me to recognize the Teacher of Truth,
Help me to recognize the Lord of Love.
