Proteja-me, Oh Mãe
Padre Reginaldo Manzotti
Protect me, Oh Mother
So many times, oh Mary, I called Your name
So many times, oh Mary, I implored Your help
Many times in the storm, I longed for Your embrace
And seeking refuge in You, Holy Mother, I found
Oh Holy Mother, if I should fall
Do not let me give up
Help me carry my cross
Oh Holy Mother, I bring here my requests
Protect me, I beg You
In the paths that lead me to Jesus
In anguish, oh Mary, I sought Your intercession
In uncertainty, oh Mary, I knelt in prayer
In moments of sadness, I clung to the rosary
And with each Hail Mary, I offered beautiful roses
Oh Holy Mother, if I should fall
Do not let me give up
Help me carry my cross
Oh Holy Mother, I bring here my requests
Protect me, I beg You
In the paths that lead me to Jesus
