"It is not Joan’s victories
We wish to celebrate this day.
My God, we know her true glories
Are her virtues, her love.
By fighting, Joan saved France.
But her great virtues
Had to be marked with the seal of suffering,
With the divine seal of Jesus her Spouse!
Joan, you are our only hope.
From high in the Heavens, deign to hear our voices.
Come down to us, come convert France.
Come save her a second time."
