Ave, maris stella, Dei mater alma, Atque semper virgo, Felix coeli porta. ... Solve vincula reis: Profer lumen caecis, Mala nostra pelle, Bona cuncta posce. ... Vitam praesta puram, Iter para tuum, Ut, videntes Iesum, Semper collaetemur. Sit laus Deo Patri, Summo Christo decus, Spiritui sancto; Tribus honor unus.

Je te salue, étoile de la mer, Mère nourricière de Dieu, Et pourtant toujours vierge, Porte fortunée du ciel. ... Brise les fers des coupables, Rends la lumière aux aveugles, Chasse de nous les maux, Obtiens-nous tous les biens. ... Obtiens-nous une vie pure, Un chemin semblable au tien, Afin que, contemplant Jésus, Ensemble nous nous réjouissions éternellement. Loué soit Dieu le père, Gloire au Christ au plus haut, Au Saint Esprit ; Honneur égal aux trois.
