00:00And we are going to see him appear soon on the balcony.
00:05Are you surprised?
00:09Yep.
00:11Right.
00:12Stan Chu, I'm going to interrupt because we're watching the live images.
00:17I don't know if you can see them, but there is the 69-year-old Leo XIV, as he is now known,
00:25appearing for the first time as Pope on the balcony.
00:29Let's listen.
04:29disarmante, umile e perseverante, proviene da Dio, Dio che ci ama a tutti incondizionalmente.
04:43Ancora conserviamo nei nostri orecchi quella voce debole, ma sempre coraggiosa, di Papa
04:53Francesco che benediva Roma. Il Papa che benediva Roma dava la sua benedizione al mondo, al
05:11mondo intero, quella mattina del giorno di Pasqua. Consentitemi di dar seguito a quella stessa
05:20benedizione. Dio ci vuole bene. Dio vi ama a tutti e il male non prevarà. Siamo tutti nelle
05:32mani di Dio. Pertanto, senza paura, uniti, mano nella mano con Dio tra di noi, andiamo a tutti.
05:50Per tutti noi, senza paura, uniti, mano in mano con Dio.
05:55Il mondo ha bisogno della sua luce.
05:56Inso, insomma, le facciamo avanti.
05:58E anche il Papa, che si può riuscire il suo percorso di Dio e il suo amore.
06:04Il mondo ha bisogno di Dio e di lui.
06:08Il mondo ha bisogno di Dio e di lui.
06:10Il mondo ha bisogno di Dio e di lui.
06:15We need him as a bridge to reach the light and help all of us to create bridges with dialogue, with meetings, to be one people, always in peace.
06:37Thank you to Pope Francis. So clearly the continuity there, but talking about Pope Francis, I would like to thank all the Cardinals that chose me to be the successor of Peter, the Apostle.
07:07Always searching for peace and justice and always to work together as men and women who are faithful to Jesus Christ, without fear, to proclaim and to be missionaries.
07:27I am a son of Saint Agostin.
07:39I am a son of Saint Agostin.
07:42He is also the bishop and we will walk together towards that.
08:01The land that God has prepared for us and we can see that the crowd is quite moved by his words, especially the faithful and the clergy.
08:14And to Rome, a special greeting.
08:18Clearly there's a loud cheer at that point because he is the bishop of Rome, of course.
08:23We must work together to create a church that is open to receiving everybody that is about dialogue and building bridges.
08:41For everyone, everyone that needs our help and our charity and our presence and our dialogue and our love.
08:54He's speaking in Spanish now. He's quite a linguist.
08:59I'm glad you can tell.
09:02A greeting, I guess, to Peru because, of course, he spent many years there.
09:16He was a missionary there, wasn't he?
09:17Yes.
09:20To all of you, brothers and sisters, of Rome, of Italy and of all the world.
09:38We want to be a synodal church, a church that walks and a church that searches for peace and searches for charity and a church that is close particularly to those that are suffering.
09:59He mentions an important day in the Catholic Church that is today.
10:16The intercession of Mary is asking the crowd to pray with him and to pray for this new mission and for all the church and for peace in the world.
10:39And call for the grace of Mary.
10:46And now there is a prayer.
10:52Amen.
10:56And of course, the crowd is cheering and we can hear that as well from the square, even though we're up here.
11:24It's estimated at least a hundred thousand, but people continue to come into the square rushing there to see their first images of the new pontiff.
11:35This is a Vatican official who is now saying that he has blessed everybody in the square, but also those that are watching this on TV.
11:50And other devices.
12:07They are amazing images, aren't they, Seymour?
12:20It sort of does send that shiver down your spine, hearing him speaking for the first time while he was speaking.
12:30Absolutely.
12:31Absolutely.
12:32Amen.
12:33Amen.
12:34Amen.
12:35Amen.
12:36Amen.
12:37Amen.
12:40Amen.
12:41Amen.
12:42Amen.
12:43Amen.
12:44Amen.
12:45Amen.
12:46Amen.
12:47Amen.
12:48Amen.
12:49Amen.
12:50Amen.
12:51Amen.
12:52Amen.
12:53Amen.
12:54Amen.
12:55Amen.
12:56Amen.
12:57Amen.
12:58Amen.
12:59Amen.
13:00Amen.
13:01Amen.
13:02Amen.
13:03Amen.
13:04Amen.
13:05Amen.
13:06Amen.
13:07Amen.
13:08Amen.
13:09In Latin, a blessing in Latin.
13:39I'm just watching those images of the people listening very carefully as the new Pope gives
13:48that blessing to them in St. Peter's Square behind us, another big cheer.
