Salve Regina

Salve, Regína, Hail, Holy Queen, máter misericórdiae; Mother of Mercy, Víta, dulcédo et spes nóstra, sálve. our life, our sweetness and our hope.

Ad te suspirámus, To thee do we send up our sighs, geméntes et fléntes in hac lacrimárum válle. mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Eia ergo, Advocáta nóstra, Turn then, most gracious advocate, íllos túos misericórdes óculos ad nos convérte. thine eyes of mercy toward us. Et Jésum, benedíctum frúctum véntris túi, And after this our exile show unto us nóbis post hoc exsílíum osténde. the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus. O clémens, o pía, o dúlcis Vírgo María. Amen. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary. Amen.

Ad maiorem Dei gloriam
