Original text and translations

Latin text Alleluia! O virga mediatrix, sancta viscera tua mortem superaverunt et venter tuus omnes creaturas illuminavit in pulchro flore de suavissima integritate clausi pudoris tui orto.

English translation Alleluia! O interceding bough, Your holy organs have conquered death and your womb has lit up all creation as the lovely bloom that germinated in the luscious untouched-ness of your cloistered chastity. Translation by Hugh McElroy
