Lyrics: 

María, Máter grátiæ, dúlcis párens cleméntiæ, tu nos ab hóste póotege, et mórtis hóra Súscipe.

Jésu tíbi sit glória, qui nátus es de Vírgine, cum pátre et álmo Spíritu, in sempitérnam sǽcula.

Translated Lyrics: 

O Mary, Mother full of grace, Mother of love and mercy, hear! Help us our enemy to face, And at the hour of death be near.
Eternal praise to Thee,O Lord, Born of a Virgin ever pure; Praise to the holy Trinity While endless ages yet endure.
