Let every mortal born on earth,
carrying his torch, in spirit leap for joy;
and let the order of the angelic powers
celebrate and honor the holy feast of the Mother of God,
and let them cry:
Rejoice! Pure and all-blessed Ever-Virgin.
carrying his torch, in spirit leap for joy;
and let the order of the angelic powers
celebrate and honor the holy feast of the Mother of God,
and let them cry:
Rejoice! Pure and all-blessed Ever-Virgin.
