Gaude Virgo plena laude. Verbi Genitrix beata super omnes exaltata. Non cessabunt, non decrescent sed durabunt et florescent tua gaudia. Ad te Regina recurro, ad te venio, ad te Diva confugio te gemens te penitens imploro. Mea verba Verbi mater ne despicias. Audi clemens, audi pia exaudi propitia. Alleluia

Réjouis-toi, Vierge, pleine de louanges, Heureuse mère du verbe, exaltée par dessus tous. Elles ne cesseront pas, elles ne diminueront pas mais elle dureront et fleuriront, tes joies. Vers toi, Reine, j'accours, vars toi, je viens, vers toi je me réfugie, je t'implore me lamentant, me repentant. Mère du verbe, ne méprise pas mes paroles. Écoute, pleine de clémence, écoute juste, exauce avec bienveillance. Alléluia.
