Salve Regina
Salve Regina
Salve, Regina,
Mater Misericordiae,
vita, dulcedo et spes nostra, salve.
Ad te clamamus,
exsules filii Hevae.
Ad te suspiramus
gementes et flentes
in hac lacrimarum valle.
Eia ergo, Advocata nostra,
illos tuos misericordes oculos
ad nos converte.
Et Jesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui,
nobis post hoc exsilium ostende.
O clemens, o pia, o dulcis
Virgo Maria.
℣ Ora pro nobis, sancta Dei Genitrix.
℟ Ut digni efficiamur promissionibus Christi.
Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy
Hail, holy Queen,
Mother of Mercy,
Hail our life, our sweetness and our hope.
To thee do we cry,
Poor banished children of Eve;
To thee do we send up our sighs,
Mourning and weeping
in this valley of tears.
Turn then, most gracious advocate,
Thine eyes of mercy
toward us;
And after this our exile,
Show unto us
the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
O clement, O loving, O sweet
Virgin Mary.
℣ Pray for us, O holy Mother of God,
℟ that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
