O Sacred Heart of Jesus,
For whom it is impossible
Not to have compassion on the afflicted,
Have pity on us miserable sinners
And grant us the grace
Which we ask of you,
Through the Sorrowful
And Immaculate Heart of Mary,
Your tender Mother and ours.

Hail, Holy Queen ...
St. Joseph, foster father of Jesus,
 ... Pray for us.
