Benignam,
Dignam
Laudibus
Decet exaltare,
Quae fructum vitae omnibus
Novit generare.
Impleta
Laeta
Munere,
Merito exultavit,
Dum angelus dulcissime
Piam salutavit.
Pietatis, pacis fons,
Virgo tu es navis, pons,
Donum fer salutis.
O suavis navis, pons,
Virgo tu es nobis pons,
Portum da salutis.

Exulta

Tu virgo singularis,
Nam regis regum fulgida
Mater appellaris.
Te clamant,
Amant
Jugiter
Agmina sanctorum,
Collaudantes praedulciter
Reginam polorum.
Clare, care rutilas.
Virgo cunctis imperas
Veram in salutem,
Obfuscare ne sinas,
Tirgo, tu ne desinas
Servis tuis lucem.

Caterva
Serva
Hominum
In te jocundamur,
Dum per dilectum unicum
Natum liberamur.
Aurora,
Ora
Filium
Pulcherrima cunctorum,
Ut nobis det praemium
Sortis beatorum.
Infinitae vitae flos,
Virgo, tu es vitae flos.
Gemma charitatis.
Insignire rite nos,
O virgo tu rite nos
Conjunge beatis.
Amen.
