Sir

That among men you erected Your Cross, a sign of contradiction, that you preached and suffered the revolt of the spirit against the perfidies and the interests of the dominants, the inert deafness of the masses, oppressed by a onerous and cruel yoke that in us and before of us has trampled on You source of free lives, gives strength to rebellion. God Who are Truth and Freedom, make us free and intense, breathe in our purpose, tend our will, multiply our strength, dress us in Your armour: we pray to You. Gentleman.

Tu

May you be rejected, reviled, betrayed, persecuted, crucified, in the hour of darkness may your victory sustain us: be in viatic indigence, support in danger, comfort in bitterness. The more it thickens and darkens the opponent, make us clear and straight. In torture he locks our lips. Break us, don't let us bend. If we fall, let our blood join your innocent blood and that of our dead, to grow justice and charity in the world.

Tu

What did you say "I am the resurrection and the life" make Italy a generous and severe life in pain. Free us from the temptation of affection, you watch over our families. On the windy mountains and in the catacombs of the city, from the depths of the prisons, we pray to You: be in us the peace that You alone can give.

God

Of the Peace of Armies. Lord who bears sword and joy, hear the prayer of us, rebels for love.
