Coróin Rí an Domhnaigh

The title 'King of the blessed Sunday' is from the Gaelic, and corresponds to the scriptural Kurios (the risen Lord). This prayer is accociated with a special five decade rosary (coróin). First say the Our Father and the Hail Mary, then say the following prayer on the large beads at the beginning of each decade:

Céad fáilte romhat, a Rí an Domhnaigh bheannaithe do tháinig le cabhair chugainn tar éis na seachtaine. Corraigh mo chos go moch chun Aifrinn, corraigh im bhéal na briathra beannaithe, corraigh mo chroí agus díbir an ghangaid as. Féachaim suas ar Mhac na Banaltran, agus ar a haon-Mhac trócaireach, mar is é is fearr a cheannaigh sinn agus gur leis féin beo is marbh sinn.	A hundred welcomes to you, O King of the Blessed Sunday who has come to help us after the week. My feet guide early to Mass, part my lips with blessed words, stir up my heart and banish out of it all spite. I look up to the Son of the Nurse, her one and only Son of Mercy, for He it is who has so excellently redeemed us and His we are whether we live or die.
This prayer is said on the small beads: V. Céad fáilte romhat, a Rí an Domhnaigh ghlórmhar, a Mhic na hÓighe is a Rí na glóire. R. A Íosa mhilís, a Íosa a Mhic Mhuire, déan trócaire orainn.	V. A hundred welcomes to you, O King of glorious Sunday, O Son of the Virgin and King of Glory R. O sweet Jesus, O Son of Mary, have mercy on us
