Salve regina misericordiae
Vita dulcedo et spes nostra salve
Ad te clamamus excules fii evae
ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes in hac lachrymarum valle
eia ergo advocata nostra
misericordes oculos ad nos converte
Et Jhesum benedictum fructum ventris tui
nobis post hoc excilium ostende
o clemens, o pia, o dulcis Maria.
