Latin lyrics
Salve Regina misericordiae,
Vita, dulcedo et spes nostra, salve.
Ad te clamamus, exules filii Hevae.
Ad te suspiramus gementes
Et flentes in hac lacrimarum valle.
Eia ergo, advocata nostra, illos tuos,
Misericordes oculos ad nos converte.
Et Jesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui,
Nobis post hoc exsilium ostende.
O clemens, o pia, o dulcis Maria.

English translation
Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy,
Our life, our sweetness and our hope.
To thee do we cry, exiled children of Eve;
To thee do we send up our sighs,
Mourning and weeping in this vale of tears.
Turn then, most gracious advocate,
Thine eyes of mercy toward us;
And after this our exile,
Show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
O clement, O loving, O sweet Mary.
