Mente tota tibi supplicamus, ut sicut Filio tuo Domino nostro Jesu Christo aliquando displicuimus, modo vice versa immutatis moribus per te usque in finem ei complaceamus. Preces nostras, Virgo mirabilis, ideo ne despicias quia ore indigno nomen sanctum tuum invocare praesumimus: Sancta Maria, ora pro nobis; sancta Dei genitrix, ora pro nobis; sancta Virgo virginum, intercede pro nobis.

De tout notre esprit nous te supplions, Pour que, comme ton fils, Notre Seigneur Jésus-Christ, Une fois nous lui avons déplu, À l'inverse en changeant de mœurs Par toi jusqu'à la fin nous lui plaisions. Nos prières, vierge merveilleuse, Ne les méprise pas parque d'une bouche indigne Ton saint nom Nous osons l'invoquer : Sainte Marie, Prie pour nous ; Sainte mère de Dieu, Prie pour nous ; Sainte vierge parmi les vierges, Intercède en notre faveur.
