About This Prayer
The Ave María, or Hail Mary, is one of the most beloved prayers in Catholicism, honoring the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of God. Rooted in the words of the Angel Gabriel and St. Elizabeth in Scripture (Luke 1:28, 42), it expresses both praise and petition — acknowledging Mary’s role in salvation history and asking for her intercession. The Spanish version of the prayer is cherished by millions of Catholics throughout Latin America and Spain, prayed daily in the Rosary and personal devotions.
The Prayer
Dios te salve, María,
llena eres de gracia,
el Señor es contigo.
Bendita tú eres entre todas las mujeres,
y bendito es el fruto de tu vientre, Jesús.
Santa María, Madre de Dios,
ruega por nosotros, pecadores,
ahora y en la hora de nuestra muerte.
Amén.
