Ave, maris stella,

Felix coeli porta.

Solve vincula reis:
Profer lumen caecis,
Mala nostra pelle,
Bona cuncta posce.

Vitam praesta puram,

Je te salue, étoile de la mer

(Sung text translation for setting by E. Grieg)

See original

Language: French (Français) after the Latin

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.
