***Lyrics in Latin, Spanish and English

O Sanctissima, o Piissima,
Dulcis Virgo Maria
Mater amata, intemerata
Ora, ora pro nobis

Ora, ora, ora pro nobis

Virgo respice, Mater adspice
Audi nos, o Maria!
Sicut lilium inter spinas
Sic Maria inter filias

Jubilate, Cherubim
Exsultate, Seraphim
Consonante perpetim
Salve, Salve Regina!

O Sanctissima, o Piissima,
Dulcis Virgo Maria
Ora, ora, ora pro nobis

Sancta Maria, Sancta Maria, Mater Dei
Sancta Maria, Sancta Maria, Mater Dei

Jubilate, Cherubim
Exsultate, Seraphim
Consonante perpetim
Salve, Salve Regina!

Ora

Letra (Español)

Oh santísima, Oh piadosísima
Dulce Virgen María
Madre amada, Madre sin mancha
Ruega, ruega por nosotros

Virgen, míranos, Madre, ampáranos
Escúchanos, oh María.
Como un lirio entre las espinas
Así es María entre las niñas

Cantad, Querubines,
Exultad, Serafines
Cantad juntos perpetuamente
Dios te salve, Dios te salve, Reina

Oh santísima, Oh piadosísima
Dulce Virgen María

Ruega, ruega, ruega por nosotros

Santa María, Santa María, Madre de Dios
Santa María, Santa María, Madre de Dios

Cantad, Querubines,
Exultad Serafines
Cantad juntos perpetuamente
Dios te salve, Dios te salve Reina

Ruega [por nosotros]

Lyrics (English)

O most holy, O most lowly
Sweet Virgin Mary
Beloved Mother, undefiled
Pray, pray for us!

Lady, look at us, Mother, help us
Hear us, O Mary.
As a lily among thorns
So is Mary among girls

Sing, Cherubim
Exult, Seraphim
Sing together forever
Hail, Hail, Holy Queen

O most holy, O most lowly
Sweet Virgin Mary

Pray, pray, pray for us

Holy Mary, Holy Mary, Mother of God
Holy Mary, Holy Mary, Mother of God

Sing, Cherubim
Exult Seraphim
Sing together forever
Hail Hail Queen
Pray [for us]

  • Thanks so much for your comment!!

    Here is the beginning (English translation):

    "O most holy, O most lowly

    Sweet Virgin Mary

    Beloved Mother, undefiled

  • Ben and Tom's voices are so different it's hard to compare them. Tom definitely had much more control than Ben does - a lot more depth and strength behind the notes. That being said, Ben has this sort of airy innocence that's quite pure and makes him immensely suitable for pieces like this as well as Jerusalem from New Dawn.

  • Yeah, I immediately thougt: 'This is Ben!' Amazing solo. For me, this song has a bit the same mood as Sancte: very sacred, quiet and emotional in a certain way. Close your eyes while listening and you see the Libera-boys standing in a big cathedral, candles in their hands...

    Thanks for posting!

  • estoy tratando de escribir un buen comentario desde hace rato, y ahora como que porfin lo he logrado. Gracias por acercar a nos los de lengua catellana canciones tan hermosas como estas. De verdad Dios te siga bendiciendo, ahora puedo compartir estas canciones a mis conocidos o a gente que no tenga mucho conocimiento del inglés y que con estos subtítulos puedo también compartir (valga la redundancia), para cuantas personas todavía no conocen a estas voces angelicales. Gracias Gracias otra vez..

  • @barcode9588 I just started listening Libera music and I think is fantastic, but when I read this I get the feeling that it IS possible to listen too much of it.

  • Did Libera sing this in any of their live concerts?

  • Wow it's so peaceful. Their voices are voices of angels. Pure. 1:32-1:41

  • Thank you so very much! God bless you.

  • Agreed. :) Robert Prizeman has this incredible ability to arrange and write songs to suit a particular soloist's voice.

  • @rsoriani - The fan community is pretty sure it's Ben. If you listen to a lot of Libera, you definitely recognize his voice.  The way he pronounces a lot of his descending vowels is quite distinctive.

  • Me encanta su música, es tan relajante .

  • amazing ! Extraordinaire.

  • Although I love mini Ben actually doing the solo on this song, I think it sounds more like Stefan Leadbeater was doing the solo. Hear him doing the high notes on Salva Me at the Crystal Cathedral and compare the sound here on this song.

    I don't want to create a controversy but I think it's much better if we wait until the album was released to know who the actual soloist is. Or better yet inquire from the LiberaOfficial website.
