Lyrics Text
Ma o’ Maria Velankanni Matha
Pray for us O’ Mary matha
From darkness lead us back to light
Across the ocean of death and life
Shine for us day and night
Star of the sea.
Ma o’ Maria Velankanni Matha
Pray for us O’ Mary matha
You fill our soul with love and grace
That we may come to see his face.
Shine for us day and night
Star of the sea.
Ma o’ Maria Velankanni Matha
Pray for us O’ Mary matha
