Hail Mary (from the Latin '''Ave Maria''', pronounced ''AH-veh muh-REE-uh'') is a traditional Roman Catholic Prayer calling for the Intercession of Mary, The Mother Of Jesus . Rooted in Biblical Texts , the Ave Maria developed in the Middle Ages ; in this context, Mary is known as the Blessed Virgin . The prayer is also used by other denominations in the Catholic tradition, notably Anglo-Catholic members of the Anglican Communion .

The first part of the prayer is the salutation of the Archangel belief in the real divinity and real humanity of Jesus . The closing petition "Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen." is stated by the official " Catechism of the Council Of Trent " to have been "framed by the Church itself" {Link without Title} .

As a separate formula for Roman Catholic devotion, the "Hail Mary"— though a pious tale has it miraculously recited to Ildephonsus of Toledo —dates to the 11th century. {Link without Title}

The Hail Mary is the essential element of the Rosary , a prayer method practiced primarily by Catholics , comprised of 4 sets of 5 Mysteries meditating upon the incarnation, life, death and resurrection of Jesus. Each of these Mysteries is prayed as a decade (ten), consisting of one Our Father (''Pater Noster'' or ''The Lord's Prayer''), ten Hail Marys, and one 'Glory be'(''Gloria Patri'') ( Doxology ). It is also the central part of the Angelus , a devotion generally recited thrice daily by Catholics, and some Anglicans and Lutherans.

One of the titles or sobriquets of Mary in Catholicism is ''Our Lady of the Rosary''.

Musical settings

The Ave Maria has been set to music numerous times. Among the most famous settings is the version by Charles Gounod (1859), adding melody and words to Johann Sebastian Bach 's first prelude from the Well-Tempered Clavier . Antonín Dvořák 's version was composed in 1877. Another setting of Ave Maria was written by Giuseppe Verdi for his 1887 opera '' Otello ''.

This text was also very often set by composers in the Renaissance , including Josquin Desprez , Orlando Di Lasso , and Giovanni Pierluigi Da Palestrina . Before the Council Of Trent there were actually different versions of the text, so the earlier composers in the period sometimes set different versions than the ones shown above. Josquin , for example, himself set more than one version of the Ave Maria. Here is an example of a text set by Josquin:

Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum, Virgo serena. Ave cuius conceptio, solemni plena gaudio, celestia, terrestria, nova replet letitia. Ave cuius nativitas, nostra fuit solemnitas, ut lucifer lux oriens verum solem preveniens. Ave pia humilitas, sine viro fecunditas, cuius annunciatio nostra fuit salvatio. Ave vera virginitas, immaculata castitas, cuius purificatio nostra fuit purgatio. Ave preclara omnibus angelicis virtutibus, cuius fuit assumptio nostra glorificatio. O Mater Dei, memento mei. Amen.


Franz Schubert 's '' Ellens Dritter Gesang '' (D839, Op 52 no 6, 1825) is often misidentified as "Schubert's ''Ave Maria''" because it opens with the words "Ave Maria", even though it is not a setting of the Ave Maria. The original text is from Sir Walter Scott 's ''The Lady Of The Lake '' and was translated into German by Adam Storck . Adding to the confusion, the Ave Maria is often sung to the melody of ''Ellens dritter Gesang'', and in Walt Disney 's Fantasia , the tune is used with yet another text beginning with the phrase.


Other meanings

  • A "Hail Mary" or a ''' Hail Mary Pass ''', in American Football , is a play in which the Quarterback throws the ball as far downfield as possible, hoping one of his receivers can catch the ball or that a defensive player commits a penalty which allows the offense to gain possession of the ball at the point of the foul. This play usually occurs at the very end of a half, and especially when the team on offense is trailing in the score. The phrase is often used outside of the sports context to refer to a desperate measure or a final effort in a project or business setting.


  • The phrase "''Hail Marys''" is also used as an anti-pietist pejorative for "prayer" without "good works" as in the following quote atrributed to ''" (quoted in the May 25, 1986, ''Observer'', London).


  • American . The song begins with "Makaveli" screaming "Come with me! Hail Mary... run quick see!" This mysterious quote is often interpreted in many different ways.


  • Jean-Luc Godard's controversial film "Hail Mary" (USA title, 1985) was a modern retelling of the Virgin Birth.
