I Call out your name

With unshaken faith I call out your name

Pleading to Mary I won't fall in shame

I find my solace when I call to you

To you my reverence O Virgin is due

Simshin teriche meche afralew

Mariam biye meche ewedkalew

Yemitsnanabet simish newina

Dingil hoy lakrib lanchi misgana

In the land of foes swallowed by darkness

Living for ages trampled by meekness 

When the devil dragged me through misery 

The Savior of the world you brought for me

When I left the land of my father's place

Among the gentiles slavery I faced

You came to my aid bestowed your blessing

Mary with you I end my suffering

With unshaken faith I call out your name

Pleading to Mary I won't fall in shame

I find my solace when I call to you

To you my reverence O Virgin is due

When my tent was filled with the wedding guests 

The ushers and hosts were in grave distress

When stricken without gifts to give in strife

Your swift aid steered me from the edge of life

My dreams like the clouds scattered in the breeze

Faded like a mist like feathers with ease

In my shortcomings I will still stand tall

In Theotokos hope answers the call

With unshaken faith I call out your name

Pleading to Mary I won't fall in shame

I find my solace when I call to you

To you my reverence O Virgin is due

When my kin forsakes no one to confide

When this heartless world cast me out aside

With you fear subsides power dwells in me

Through the fiercest winds I will sail the sea

In the grasp of foes I found agony

Pain and suffering trials aplenty

I will never cease my praises to you

Dear Virgin Mary your marvels renew 

With unshaken faith I call out your name

Pleading to Mary I won't fall in shame

I find my solace when I call to you

To you my reverence O Virgin is due

When tormentors loom shouting threats at me

Their words can't cease the love I hold for thee

In the scoffer's crowd your name I’ll decree

So my faith withstands shield me dear Mary

In the grasp of foes I found agony

Pain and suffering trials aplenty

I will never cease my praises to you

Dear Virgin Mary your marvels renew 

With unshaken faith I call out your name

Pleading to Mary I won't fall in shame

I find my solace when I call to you

To you my reverence O Virgin is due

Simshin teriche meche afralew

Mariam biye meche ewedkalew

Yemitsnanabet simish newina
