"Ave Clemens", the song for the Virgin of Nazareth

Every Saturday evening, in the Basilica of the Annunciation in Nazareth, the "Ave Clemens" song resounds. For years it has opened the weekly torchlight procession. For the singer Rabab, who performs the Arabic version of this song, this text has become her prayer to the Virgin. RABAB ZAYTOUN Singer "When I sing "Ave Clemens" it's like a girl talking to her mother and not just any mother: She's Mary, the Mother of Jesus, the Mother of all, the Mother of the whole world. She is the fountain of all graces, She is the school of faith, obedience and love. Every time I sing 'Ave Clemens' I immediately see myself two thousand years ago, sharing the words that the Angel addressed to Our Lady when he came and told her that you were going to be the Mother of God".
