Turn to me thine eyes,
Oh most loving Virgin of Peñafrancia
and have mercy on my soul
that come to thee, full of repentance.
Protect my family, relatives, friends and benefactors.
Intercede for your devotees,
both the living and the dead,
specially for those whom
I am most obliged to help.
Pray for me, console me, save me.
In my hours of peril, adversity and afflications,
above all, in the hour of my death,
appear before your Divine Son
to help and defend me.
Tell Him that I am your devotee,
that having complete trust in your protection
I kneel before your miraculous image
to ask for your powerful intercession.
Virgin of Peñafrancia, Pray for me,
help me, console me, and deliver me from all evil.
Amen
