O Mother of Beautiful Love, Holy Mary, Mother of God, you are the gentle guide of our hearts and the tender comfort of our souls.

O Mother of Beautiful Love, pray for us and guide us to your Son.

Amen.

The "Prayer to the Mother of Beautiful Love" by Saint John Paul II is not explicitly named in the provided content. However, the content does include several prayers and quotes from Saint John Paul II that express his deep devotion to Mary, often referring to her as the "Mother of fair love" or similar titles. One such quote from Saint John Paul II states, "Be faithful to the Mother of fair love. Have trust in her, as you shape your love and form your young families. May Christ always be there for you ‘the Way, the Truth, and the Life’." This highlights his emphasis on Mary as a guide for love and family life.

Saint John Paul II had a profound and well-documented devotion to the Virgin Mary, which he often expressed through prayers and writings. His papal motto, Totus Tuus, meaning "totally yours," was dedicated to the Blessed Mother, signifying his complete consecration to her. This devotion was a cornerstone of his pontificate, influencing his spiritual life and public ministry.

While a specific prayer titled "Prayer to the Mother of Beautiful Love" is not directly presented, the provided texts contain several prayers by Saint John Paul II that reflect this sentiment. For instance, the "Prayer to Our Lady of Guadalupe" by Pope John Paul II, recited in Mexico in January 1979, addresses Mary as "Mother of Mercy, Teacher of hidden and silent sacrifice" and dedicates "all our being and all our love" to her. This prayer also asks for Mary's intercession to "Grant to our homes the grace of loving and respecting life in its beginnings, with the same love with which you conceived in your womb the life of the Son of God" This reflects the theme of love within families and the sanctity of life, which aligns with the concept of "beautiful love."

Another prayer attributed to Saint John Paul II, intended for families, asks that "May the Virgin Mary, Mother of the Church, be also mother of the domestic church" and that "May Christ the Lord, King of the Universe, King of families, be present, as at Cana, in every Christian home, to communicate his light, joy, serenity, and strength" This prayer further emphasizes Mary's role in fostering love and spiritual well-being within the family unit.

His deep affection for Mary was also evident in his prayer to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, recited at the shrine of Our Lady of Fatima in 1982, which serves as a consecration of one's life to God through Mary's intercession. These various prayers and statements collectively demonstrate Saint John Paul II's consistent appeal to Mary as the embodiment and facilitator of divine and human love, particularly within the context of family and Christian life.

You are the happiness of those who suffer, the crown of martyrs, the beauty of virgins. Lead us, we beseech, after this our exile to the possession of your Son Jesus. Amen."
