Original text and translations

Latin text

O gloriosa domina, excelsa supra sidera,
qui te creavit provide lactasti sacro ubere.

Quod Eva tristis abstulit tu reddis almo germine;
intrent ut astra flebiles, caeli fenestra facta es.

Tu regis alti ianua, alti porta lucis fulgida;
vitam datam per virginem gentes redemptae plaudite.

Gloria tibi Domine qui natus es de virgine
cum Patre et Sancto Spiritu in sempiterna saecula.
