Santa Muerte, or Mictacihuatl the Skeletal Lady

You are fleshless and made of cold bones

Yet your embrace is as warm as a mother's for us


Skeletal Lady, how you love all of us

Wretched outcasts


You see how miserable we are and still you love us


I have nothing to ask for in this prayer

All I came to do was sing your praises

Sheltered in your mercy
