Alma Redemptoris Mater
– from Advent through Candlemas–
Alma* Redemptóris Mater,
quæ pérvia cæli Porta manes,
Et stella maris, succúrre cadénti,
súrgere qui curat pópulo:
Tu quæ genuísti, natúra miránte,
tuum sanctum Genitórem
Virgo prius ac postérius, Gabriélis ab ore
sumens illud Ave, peccatórum miserere.
Ave Regina caelorum

Ave, Regina Caelorum,
Ave, Domina Angelorum:

Ex qua mundo lux est orta:
Gaude, Virgo gloriosa,
Super omnes speciosa,
Vale, o valde decora,
Et pro nobis Christum exora.
Regina caeli

Regina caeli, laetare, alleluia;
Quia quem meruisti portare, alleluia,
Resurrexit, sicut dixit, alleluia:
Ora pro nobis Deum, alleluia.
Salve Regina
– from Pentecost, ordinary time to advent–
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 Iesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui,
nobis post hoc exilium ostende.
O clemens, O pia,
O dulcis Virgo Maria.
