Salve sancta parens, enixa puerpera Regem: qui caelum terramque regit in saecula saeculorum, alleluia.
Eructavit cor meum verbum bonum: dico ego opera mea Regi.
Gloria Patri, et Filio, et spiritui sancto. Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper, et in saecula saeculorum. Amen.

Hail, Holy Mother, who in childbirth didst bring forth the King who ruleth heaven and earth world without end, alleluia.
My heart hath uttered a good word; I speak my works to the King.
Glory be...
