Original text and translations

Latin text

Ave cælorum Domina
Maria plena gratia
cælestia terrestria
nova reples lætitia

Ave cuius nativitas
nostra fuit solemnitas
ut lucifer lux oriens
verum solem præveniens

Ave pia humilitas
sine viro fecunditas
cuius annuntiatio
nostra fuit glorificatio

Ave vera virginitas
in maculata castitas
cuius purificatio
nostra fuit purgatio

Ave præclara omnibus
angelicis virtutibus
cuius fuit assumptio
nostra glorificatio
