Benedicta es caelorum regina
Language: Latin 
Our translations:  ENG
Benedicta es caelorum regina,
Et mundi totius domina
Et aegris medicina.
Tu praeclara maris stella vocaris
Quae solem justitiae paris
A quo illuminaris.
Te Deus Pater, ut Dei Mater
Fieres et ipse frater,
Cujus eras filia,
Sanctificavit sanctam servavit
Et mittens sic salutavit ;
Ave plena gratia.

Per illud ave prolatum
Et tuum responsum gratum
Est ex te Verbum incarnatum
Quo salvantur omnia.

Nunc mater exora natum
Ut nostrum tolat reatum
Et regnum det nobis paratum
In caelesti patria.
Amen.
