Lyrics: 

Regína, caéli, laetáre, allelúia: Quía quém meruísti portáre, allelúia,
Resurréxit sícut díxit, allelúia. Ora pro nóbis Déum, allelúia.

Translated Lyrics: 

O Queen of heaven rejoice! alleluia: For He whom thou didst merit to bear, alleluia,
Hath arisen as he said, alleluia. Pray for us to God, alleluia.
