The Prolouge
In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, one true God.
Glory be to Him; and may His grace and mercy be upon us for ever. Amen
Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty, the heaven and the earth are full of your glory; Hosanna in the highest.
Blessed is He who has come, and is to come in the name of the Lord; glory be to Him in the highest.

Holy art Thou, Almighty;
Holy art Thou, Immortal;
+ (O Thou who was) Crucified for us, have mercy on us. (Thrice)
Lord, have mercy upon us,
Lord, be kind and have mercy upon us;
Lord, accept our prayers and supplications and have mercy upon us.
Glory be to Thee, O God;
Glory be to Thee, O creator;
Glory be to Thee, O Christ, the King who does pity sinners, Thy servants. Barekhmor.
Our Father, who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy name. Thy Kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread: and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one; for Thine is the Kingdom, the Power and the glory for ever and ever. Amen.
(This following prayer is technically not part of the Qawma and need not be repeated each time)
Hail Mary, full of grace, Our Lord is with Thee. Blessed art Thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of Thy womb, our Lord, Jesus Christ. O Virgin Saint Mary, O Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at all times, and at the hour of our death. Amen.
Introductory Prayer
Enlighten, Lord, the eyes of our minds by the light of your glory, that while we walk in it we may turn aside from the paths and snares of the enemy. Strengthen our hearts in your commandments and our hands in the doing of good. Direct, Lord God, our walking according to your word and our thoughts to meditation on you; keep our lips and our tongues by your help for the voice of your praise; establish the truth of your teaching in us and deliver us from every kind of sin, for in you is our hope and on you we call, our Lord and our God, forever.
(Depending on the day of the week)
