St. Cyril's Litany

Hail, O Mary, Mother of God, Virgin and Mother! Morning Star, perfect vessel.
We salute you, Mother of God.

Hail, O Mary, Mother of God! holy temple in which God Himself was conceived.  
We salute you, Mother of God.

Hail, O Mary, Mother of God! chaste and pure dove.  
We salute you, Mother of God.

Hail, O Mary, Mother of God! ever-effulgent light; from you proceeds the Sun of Justice.  
We salute you, Mother of God.

Hail, O Mary, Mother of God ! you enclosed in your sacred womb the One Who cannot be encompassed.  
We salute you, Mother of God.

Hail, O Mary, Mother of God! With the shepherds we sing the praise of God,
and with the angels the song of thanksgiving:
Glory to God in the highest and peace on earth to men of good will.  
We salute you, Mother of God.

Hail, O Mary, Mother of God! Through you came to us the Vanquisher of hell.  
We salute you, Mother of God.

Hail, O Mary, Mother of God! Through you blossoms the splendor of the resurrection.
We salute you, Mother of God.

Hail, O Mary, Mother of God! you have saved every faithful Christian.
Hail, O Mary, Mother of God! Who can praise you worthily, O glorious Virgin Mary!  
We salute you, Mother of God.
