"Sub Tuum Praesidium" by unknown writer (Greek original text with translations into Latin,English, and Portuguese)



Ὑπὸ τὴν σὴν εὐσπλαγχνίαν,
καταφεύγομεν, Θεοτόκε.
Τὰς ἡμῶν ἱκεσίας, μὴ παρίδῃς ἐν περιστάσει,
ἀλλ᾽ ἐκ κινδύνων λύτρωσαι ἡμᾶς,
μόνη Ἁγνή, μόνη εὐλογημένη.
                                                (ca. 250C.E.)
   
Sub tuum praesidium
confugimus,
Sancta Dei Genetrix.
Nostras deprecationes ne despicias
in necessitatibus nostris,
sed a periculis cunctis
libera nos semper,
Virgo gloriosa et benedicta.

Beneath your
Compassion
We take refuge,
Theotokos (Mother of God). Our
Petitions do not despise
In time of trouble
But from danger
Rescue us,
Only holy,
Only blessed.


Sob a vossa proteção nos refugiamos,
Santa Mãe de Deus;
não desprezeis as nossas súplicas
em nossas necessidades;
mas livrai-nos sempre
de todos os perigos,
ó Virgem gloriosa e bendita.
Amém.
