Richard Collins's blog Linen on the Hedgerow has a wonderful video with music, on the Marian prayer Sub Tuum Praesidium.
Please go and watch it.
For interest, I give a translation below of the longer, Polish version, which is said almost daily in school prayers. A much beloved hymn is Marja Królowa Polski (Mary Queen of Poland).
We fly to Your patronage,
Holy Mother of God.
Despise not our petitions
in our necessities,
but from all dangers
deign to deliver us always,
O glorious and blessed Virgin.
Our Lady, our
Most gracious advocate,
Our Mediatrix,
Our Comforter.
Reconcile us with His Son,
Recommend us to His Son,
Give us to His Son.
Amen.
