Virgin Mother of God,

Queen of the most Holy Rosary,
Thou who hast chosen to raise
thy throne of mercy in Manaoag,

children, banished in this alley of tears,
look down with Thine eyes of mercy upon me,
who am beset with so many dangers
of body and soul.
Despise not my petition O dearest Mother,
but intercede for me before thy divine Son
now and at the hour of my death. Amen.

VIRGIN OF MANAOAG, Pray for us.
