Pulcherrima Rosa

John Potter (The Dowland Project)
Album: Romaria
English Translation:

Most beautiful rose
Blooming from a thorn
From the budding flower
A lily born

Serving modestly and in a virginal way
The created one bore the creator

Unique virgin
No one is worthy of you
Gleaming star of the sea
Light and the moon

Serving modestly and in a virginal way
The created one bore the creator

Such succour
Queen of this sad world
And mother of Eve
Who lightens our punishment

Serving modestly and in a virginal way
The created one bore the creator

Freely for us
Beside your son
Mother and witness
After this earthly exile

Serving modestly and in a virginal way
The created one bore the creator
