Alphonsa, Blessed Spouse of Christ,
Greetings from your children dear.
Neath thy banner shall we fight
Dauntless and daring (2)without fear.
CHORUS : Hail, Alphonsa, hail
Bharath Matha's gleaming boast.
Teach us how to love and serve
the poor and the needy,
the sick and the old
Spreading love for one and all
we shall sow the seed of Truth,
Hark'ning to the master's call,
Clarion call (2) of the Jesus Youth.
Sound in brawn and sound in brain
Singing, dancing shall we grow.
Working hard without a strain
Pray(er) and work (2)
with our hearts aglow.
