Proteja-me, Oh Mãe

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
