Plegaria Guadalupana
Miguel Aceves Mejía
Guadalupan Prayer
Prostrated before your feet
As the Indian Juan Diego did
We come, oh Holy Virgin
To raise this plea before you
We carry within our chest
Our hearts full
To give you thanks
With this humble song
Guadalupe Virgin
Let tears of emotion flow
For my mother is already healthy
Thanks to your blessing
Mexican patroness
Today I bring another request
Make my homeland safe
From evil ambition
We come from Huasteca
To here on pilgrimage
Our people there also sin
And want to implore your forgiveness
Although our land is distant
We are servants of your devotion
The bell called us there
Celebrating your coronation
Guadalupe Virgin
Let tears of emotion flow
For my mother is already healthy
Thanks to your blessing
Mexican patroness
Today I bring another request
Make my homeland safe
From evil ambition
Guadalupe Virgin
