Ave regina coelorum
Language: Latin
Available translation(s): ENG
Ave regina coelorum, Ave domina angelorum, Miserere tui labentis Dufay, ne peccatorum ruat in ignem fervorum. Salve radix sancta, ex qua mundo lux est orta, Miserere, miserere genetrix domini ut pateat porta coeli debili. Gaude gloriosa, super omnes speciosa, Miserere, miserere supplicanti Dufay sitque in conspectu tuo mors eius speciosa. Vale, valde decora, et pro nobis semper Christum exora, In excelsis ne damnemur miserere nobis et iuva, ut in mortis hora nostra sint corda decora.
