Mary, we great you,
Mother and Queen all merciful:
Our life, our sweetness, and our hope,
we hail you.
To you we exiles,
children of Eve,
lift our crying.
To you we send our sighs,
as mourning and weeping, we pass
through this vale of sorrow.
Haste, then, we pray,
O our intercessors, look with pity,
with eyes of love and tenderness upon us sinners.
And after, when this earthly
exile shall be ended,
show us your womb’s most blessed
Fruit, your Jesus.
O clement: O loving:
O most sweet Virgin Mary.
