lyrics
O my soul, magnify the all pure virgin Mother of God, more honourable and glorious than the heavenly hosts.
To keep silence in fear would be easier for us to do, for this is free from danger, O Virgin Mother, and though it is hard indeed to properly weave hymns, O Mother, give us strength so that our good intention may be fulfilled.
