Latin Text:

Salve Regina, Mater Misericordiae,
Vita, dulcedo, et spes nostra, Salve!

Ad te clamamus, exsules filii [H]evae,
Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes,
In hac lacrimarum valle.

Eja ergo, Advocata nostra,
Illos tuos misericordes oculos ad nos converte

Et Jesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui,
Nobis, post hoc exilium, ostende,
O clemens, O pia, O dulcis Virgo Maria. (less info)
