The first good joy that Mary had,
It was the joy of one;
To see the blessed Jesus Christ,
When He was first her son.
When he was first her son, good man;
And blessed may he be;
Both Father, Son and Holy Ghost
To all eternity.
The next good joy that Mary had,
It was the joy of two;
To see her own Son Jesus Christ,
To make the lame to go.

And blessed may he be;

To all eternity.
