Ave, ave, ave Maria
Ave, ave, ave Maria

I've traveled far, the land and the sea
Beautiful places I happened to be
One little town I'll never forget
Is Lourdes, the village of St. Bernadette

Ave, ave, ave Maria
Ave, ave, ave Maria

Down to the grotto I followed in song
Pilgrims all weary from journeys so long
Rich and the poor, the strong and the lame
Thousands all praising thе sweet lady's name

Ave, ave, avе Maria
Ave, ave, ave Maria

There, like a dream, this wonderful night
I gazed at the grotto aglow in the light
A feeling divine swept over me there
I fell to my knees as I whispered the prayer

Ave, ave, ave Maria
Ave, ave, ave Maria
Now I am home, I'm happy to be
Telling of places I've traveled to see
One little town I'll never forget
Is Lourdes, the village of St. Bernadette

Ave, ave, ave Maria
Ave, ave, ave Maria

Sing ave Maria
