Text:
Ave Regina cœlorum,
Ave Domina Angelorum:
Salve radix, salve porta,
Ex qua mundo lux est orta:
Gaude Virgo gloriosa,
Super omnes speciosa,
Vale, o valde decora, Et pro nobis Christum [semper] exora.
English Translation:
Hail, Queen of the heavens,
Hail, ruler of the angels:
Hail, root, hail, portal
From whom light has shone to the world. Hail, Virgin most glorious, Beautiful above all,
Farewell, O most comely, and pray to Christ for us always.
