Analysis of To maria rosa mystical
~~~
Oh Mother you are the Roisin
Of my heart and it is my hope
That through my behaviour
We will never depart…
~
I always need you, Mother,
For you are the tabernacle
Of Your son, Jesus, our Lord
Who freed us from all sin.
~
Oh, Mother, I know you are -
In fact I sense your presence
And I assure you that my love
For you is one that is unique.
~
For what could compare and
Compete with the Jewish maiden
Whose ‘yes’ to Gabriel ensured
The salvation of our species.
