Ave Maria...virgo Serena
Ave Maria, gratia plena,
Dominus tecum, virgo serena.
Ave cujus conceptio,
Solemni plena gaudio,
Coelestia, terrestria,
Nova replete laetitia.
Ave, cujus nativitas,
Nostra fuit solemnitas,
Ut lucifer lux oriens,
Verum solem praeveniens.
Ave, pia humilitas,
Sine viro fecunditas,
Cuius annunciatio,
Nostra fuit salvatio.
Ave, vera virginitas,
Immaculata castitas,
Cuius purificatio
Nostra fuit purgatio.
Ave praeclara omnibus,
Angelicis virtutibus,
Cujus fuit assumptio
Nostra glorificatio.
O Mater Dei,
memento mei.
Amen.
Hail Mary, full of grace,
The Lord is with thee, serene Virgin.
Hail, thou whose conception,
Full of great joy,
Fills heaven and earth
With new gladness.
Hail, thou whose nativity
Became our great celebration,
As the light-bearing Morning Star
anticipates the true Sun.
Hail, faithful humility,
Fruitful without man,
Whose annunciation
Was our salvation.
Hail, true virginity,
Immaculate chastity,
Whose purification
Was our cleansing.
Hail, glorious one
In all angelic virtues,
Whose assumption
Was our glorification.
O Mother of God,
Remember me.
Amen.
