Verso: Vierge Sainte au milieu de vos jours glorieux, n'oubliez pasles tristesses de la terre, jetez, un regard de bonté sur ceux qui sont dans la souffrance, qui luttent contre les difficultés et qui ne cessant de tremper leurs levres aux amertumes de la vie. Ayez pitié de ceux qui ont été séparés. Ayez pitié de l'isolement du couer. Ayez pitié de la faiblesses de notre foi. Ayez pitié des objets de notre tendresse. Ayez pitié de ceux qui pleurent, de ceux qui prient, de ceux qui tremblent donnez â tous l'espérance et la paix. Ainsi-soit-il! (Prière de l'Abbé Perreyve) Translation Holy Virgin in the midst of your glorious days, do not forget the sadness of the earth, cast a look of kindness on those who are in suffering, who struggle against difficulties and who never cease to soak their lips in the bitterness of life . Have pity on those who have been separated. Have pity on the isolation of the heart. Have pity on the weaknesses of our faith. Have pity on the objects of our tenderness. Have pity on those who cry, on those who pray, on those who tremble; give hope and peace to all. So be it! (Prayer of Father Perreyve) |
