Prayer to the Virgin Mary by Max Jacob

Praise to this little country girl,

Who deserved to be the mother of God!

It seems to me that she was born in Brittany

And that she lived there before my eyes….

She is the only one.

She is greeted by Gabriel;

She deserves it :

That's why God is on her.

He is in her, he is around her;

He is her husband, her son, her father;

She is his nurse and his mother;

She is his queen, he is her king.

Unique Virgin, watch over me.
