Oratio ad Sanctissima Dei Genetrix

 O Most beautiful flower of Mount Carmel,

Fruitful vine, splendor of heaven,

Blessed Mother of the Son of God, Immaculate Virgin,

Assist me in this, my necessity, O' Star of the Sea,

Help me and show me herein you are my Mother.

O' Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth,

I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart, to succour me in this necessity,

There are none that can withstand your power.

O, show me herein you are my mother, 

O' Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.

O' Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.

O' Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.

Holy Mary, I place this cause in your hands.


Sweet Mother, I pray for this cause in your hands.

Sweet Mother, I pray for this cause in your hands.

Sweet Mother, I pray for this cause in your hands.


Holy Spirit, resolve all problems, light all roads so that I can attain my goal.

You gave me the divine gift to forgive and forget all evil against me

In that in all instances of my life, you are with me.

I want this short prayer to thank you for all things

As you confirm once again that I never want to be separated from you

Even in spite of material things, I with to be with you in eternal glory.

Thank you for your mercy towards me and mine.
