Our Lady
of Siluva
O Most Holy Virgin Mary,
Thou who didst appear
to the shepherds in the
fields at Siluva,
Thou whose tears did bathe
the rock where
once an altar stood,
Thou who didst
with plaintive voice say:
"You plow and seed here where
formerly my Son was honored,"
grant that we, moved by
Thy tears, may,
once as our Forefathers did,
revive the spirit of adoration o
f Thy Son in our fallow hearts,
strengthen the tottering structure
of the shrine which is the family,
and seek forgiveness
for our negligence and sins.
O Mother of God,
we desire to raise up the glory
of Your revelation from
forgotten ruins, that we may
all the more honor Thee,
the Patroness of Lithuania,
and with Thy help obtain
for us the spirit of a living Faith.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
