Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum,
totiens enim oscularis,
quotiens per me salutaris,
ergo ad ejus imaginem accedit,
oscula imprimite,
Ave Maria dicite.

Gaude Virgo gratiosa,
verbo verbum concepisti,
gaude tellus fructuosa,
fructum vite protulisti,
gaude rosa speciosa,
vernans Christo resurgente,
gaude Mater gloriosa,
Christo caelos ascendente,
gaude fovens delitiis,
nunc rosa iuncta liliis,
munda nos avitio
et tuo iunge Filio.
Amen.
