1 Hail, Virgin, dearest Mary,
Our lovely Queen of May!
O, spotless, blessed Lady,
Our lovely Queen of May!
Chorus:
Thy children, humbly bending
Around thy shrine so dear,
With heart and voice ascending,
Sweet Mary, hear our pray'r.
Hail, Virgin, dearest Mary!
Our lovely Queen of May,
O spotless blessed Lady,
Our lovely Queen of May.
2 Behold earth's blossom's springing
In beauteous form and hue,
All nature gladly bringing
Her sweetest charms to you.
Chorus:
We'll gather fresh, bright flowers,
To bind our fair Queen's brow;
From gay and verdant bowers,
We haste to crown thee now.
Hail, Virgin, dearest Mary,
Our lovely Queen of May!
O, spotless, blessed Lady,
Our lovely Queen of May!
