Mater Anna

Language: Latin

Available translation(s): FRE

Mater Anna quisquae personat promissionis foetum peperit,
dulcis Anna quae piissima tantum vobis fructum
edidit ex quo dulcis Iesus prodiit.
Mater Anna, dulcis Anna, quam beata Domus
David ex quam prodiisti venter in quo Deus
sanctificationis Aram fabricavit.
Audite gentes inopinatum miraculum.
Audite, congaudete mecum, quia per divinum
germem ex sterili ventre peperi.
Matrem Annam quisque personat promissionis foetum peperit.
Audite gentes miraculum, audite Filium Mariae,
congaudete mecum quia pratum Divino
opificium formatum supra naturam edidi.
Dulcis Anna quae piissima tantum vobis fructum
edidit ex quo dulcis Iesus prodiit.
Mater Anna, dulcis Anna, tu benedictionis
fructum uberibus tuis nutristi non eius partum
Iesum precatis cruci configimus.
Tù dulcis Anna, tù miserere, tù salva nos, adiuva nos.
