1 Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy,
1 Salve, Regina, Mater misericordiæ,
2 our life, our sweetness, and our hope.
2 vita, dulcedo, et spes nostra, salve.
3 To thee do we cry,
3 Ad te clamamus,
4 poor banished children of Eve.
4 exsules filii Hevæ.
5 To thee do we send up our sighs,
5 Ad te suspiramus,
6 mourning and weeping in this valley of tears.
6 gementes et flentes in hac lacrimarum valle.
7 Turn then, most gracious advocate,
7 Eia ergo, advocata nostra,
8 thine eyes of mercy toward us.
8 illos tuos misericordes oculos ad nos converte.
9 And after this our exile show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
9 Et Jesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui, nobis post hoc exilium ostende.
10 O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.
10 O clemens, O pia, O dulcis Virgo Maria.
