Collect
Deus, qui beátum Cyríllum Confessórem tuum atque Pontíficem divínæ maternitátis beatíssimæ Vírginis Maríæ assertórem invíctum effecísti: concéde, ipso intercedénte; ut, qui vere eam Genetrícem Dei crédimus, matérna eíusdem protectióne salvémur.
O God, Who made Cyril, Your Confessor and Bishop, an unconquerable champion of the most Blessed Virgin Mary’s divine motherhood, grant that we who believe that she is truly the Mother of God may be saved by her motherly protection.
Secret
Múnera nostra, omnípotens Deus, benígnus réspice: et, intercedénte beáto Cyríllo, præsta; ut unigénitum tuum Jesum Christum, Dóminum nostrum in tua tecum glória coætérnum, in córdibus nostris digne suscípere mereámur:
Look graciously, almighty God, upon our gifts and, through the intercession of blessed Cyril, grant that we may receive worthily into our hearts, Your only-begotten Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord, Who is with You co-eternal in Your glory.
Postcommunion
Divínis, Dómine, refécti mystériis, te súpplices deprecámur: ut, exémplis et méritis beáti Cyrílli Pontíficis adjúti, sanctíssimæ Genetríci Unigéniti tui digne famulári valeámus:
Strengthened by the Blessed Sacrament, we humbly beseech You, O Lord, that, helped by the example and merits of the blessed Bishop Cyril, we may be worthy servants of the most holy Mother of Your only-begotten Son.
Ad maiorem Dei gloriam
