Ave Maria 

  

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
Mater Dei
Ora pro nobis peccatoribus
Ora pro nobis
Ora, ora pro nobis peccatoribus
Nunc et in hora mortis
Et in hora mortis nostrae
Et in hora mortis nostrae
Et in hora mortis nostrae
Ave Maria 

Listening to Danee’s marvelous rendition of Ave Maria transported me in time and space back to my beloved Church, The Saint Joseph Cathedral in Bucharest, where I listened and prayed so many times and now imagining how splendid the sound of her voice would fill the air of that beautiful Cathedral.

Thank you Danee.
