All men big and small, come and hail your Queen.
We thank you great Queen, the Mother of Christ.
We thank you great Mother, the pride of our race.
We thank you great Queen, both Mother and Virgin.
We thank your great Mother, the source of our joy.
Ave Maria, our noble Queen. 

We thank Our Father, who gave you to us
We thank Lord Jesus, who showed you to us
We thank Holy Spirit, who showed you the Light
We thank you great Mother, pure in heart and deed
We thank you great Queen, conceived without sin.
Ave Maria, our noble Queen.

We thank you great Mother, Queen of All Angels.
We thank you great Mother, Queen of all Virgins.
We thank you great Mother, Queen of all Saints.
We thank you great Mother, Queen of all Prophets.
We thank you great Mother, Queen of all Martyrs.
Ave Maria, our noble Queen.

We thank you sweet Mother, Refuge of Sinners.
We thank you sweet Mother, Health of the sick.
We thank you sweet Mother, Gate of Heaven.
We thank you sweet Mother, Seat of Wisdom.
We thank you sweet Mother, Star of the sea.
