Salve Regina, mater misericordiae?
Vita, dulcedo, et spes nostra, salve
Ad te clamamus, exsules, filii Hevae
Ad te suspiramus
Gementes et flentes
in hac lacrimarum valle
Eia ergo, Advocata nostra
illos tuos misericordes oculos
ad nos converte
Et Iesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui
nobis, post hoc exsilium ostende
O clemens, O pia, O dulcis
Virgo Maria
O clemens, O pia, O dulcis
Virgo Maria


Engelse vertaling van de Salve Regina

Queen, mother of mercy:
Our life, sweetness, and hope, hail
To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve
To you we sigh
Mourning and weeping
in this valley of tears
Turn then, our advocate
those merciful eyes
toward us
And Jesus, the blessed fruit of thy womb
after our exile, show us
O clement, O loving, O sweet
Virgin Mary
