Hymn/song: O Who Loves Nicholas the Saintly
 Bollettino di San Nicola Maggio/Giugno 2002 Used by permission |
O who loves Nicholas the saintly,
O who serves Nicholas the saintly,Him will Nicholas receive,
And give help in time of need:
Holy Father Nicholas!*He who dwells in God's holy mansions,
Is our help on the land and oceans,He will guard us from all ills,
Keep us pure and free from sins
Holy Father Nicholas!*Holy Saint, hearken to our prayer,
Let not life drive us to despair,All our efforts shall not wane,
Singing praises to your name:
Holy Father Nicholas!*O kto kto Nikolaja l'ubit,
O kto kto Nikolaja sluzit,Tomu svjatyj Nikolaj,
Na vsjakj cas pomahaj:
Nikolaj, Nikolaj!*
*Repeat the three lines of the refrain.
