Latin Version:
Salve Regina, Mater misericordiae,
Vita dulcedo, et spes nostra salve;
Ad te clamamus, exules, 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 exilium ostende.
O clemens, O pia, O dulcis Virgo Maria.
English Version:
Hail, O Holy Queen! Hail, O Mother all merciful
Our life, our sweetness, and Our hope, we hail thee!
To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve;
To thee we send our sighs while mourning and weeping
In this lowly valley of tears.
Turn then thine eyes, most gracious advocate,
O turn thine eyes, so full of love and tenderness,
Upon us sinners.
And Jesus, the most blessed fruit of thy virgin womb,
Show us when this earthly exile is ended.
O clement, O loving, O most sweet Virgin Mary.
