Latin text

Prima Pars
Maria virgo, semper laetare
quae meruisti Christum portare
caeli et terrae conditorem
quia de tuo sancto utero
protulisti mundi Salvatorem,
virgo concepti, virgo permansit,
virgo peperit regem omnium regem,
gaude Maria virgo cunctas
haereres sola interemisti
in universo mundo.

Secunda Pars
Te laudant angeli
atque archangeli,
sancta Dei genitrix
quae virum cognovisti
et Dominum Jesum Christum
in tuo sancto utero bajulasti
Beata es, virgo Maria
quae Dominum portasti
Creatorem mundi qui te fecit
et in aeternum permanes virgo
ora pro nobis ad Dominum Jesum Christum.
