I pray unto You, Lord God of Israel, that You consider my prayer as You did that of Mother Hanno, the prophetess who prayed for a son, the prophet Șmual. May her zchüs [merit] stand me in good stead. May I, Your maidservant, who am with child (Your creation!), carry full term and give birth to a healthy child who will become a pious Jew and serve You heart and soul; one who will love Torah and be God-fearing according to Your holy will, a beautiful plant in the Jewish vineyard for the beauty of Israel [tiferăs Yisroal]. Omeyn.
