O mother through marriage
and religious Mother,
who indeed became mother of many,
many sisters whom you led
in the faith
and many children whom you taught
in your schools –
in your wisdom
teach many still
the path of Christ,
the way of charity He has trod,
that renewed will those be
who call you Mother,
and instructed well
those in their classrooms
throughout the land.
What should we teach our children,
dear Mother?
Have we not forgotten the lesson of Christ?
Pray for us, I beg,
this day,
that the way and the truth
we shall follow.
