Ave Maria
Gratia plena
Maria, gratia plena
Maria, gratia plena
Ave, ave dominus
Dominus tecum
Benedicta tu in mulieribus
Et benedictus
Et benedictus fructus ventris
Ventris tuae, Jesus.
Ave Maria
Song lyrics to My Mammy music by Walter Donaldson and lyrics by Joe Young and Sam M. Lewis. Interestingly, it was first recorded by William Frawley of I Love Lucy fame
You were sweet sixteen, you were sweet sixteen
I love you as I never loved before!
Since first I met you on the village green.
Come to me, or my dream of love is o’er!
I love you as I loved you,
When you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen.
There’s a little bunch of sweetness,
That I long to call my bride.
And believe me, I’m not happy,
Lest my baby’s by my side.
Her baptismal name was Rosie,
But she put’s the rose to shame.
And almost every night,
you’ll hear me call her name.
A little maiden climbed an old man’s knee,
Begged for a story, “Do, Uncle, please.
Why are you single; Why live alone?
Have you no babies, have you no home?”
