Original text and translations

Latin text

Salvator mundi salva nos
sancta Dei genitrix, ora pro nobis
precibus quoque sanctorum,
angelorum, prophetarum, apostolarum, martyrum
et confessorum atque sanctarum virginum
suppliciter petimus ut a malis omnibus eruamur,
nunc et semper perfrui mereamur.

Eya ergo advocemus gloriosam virginem celorum reginam.
Mariam spiritum ordines ad nostre solemnitatis gaudium
ut quorum gloriam frequenti laude attollimus
eorum mores sanctos imitari decertemus letamini in domino
et exultate iusti et gloriamini omnes recti corde, alleluya.
