Salve mundi domina

Hail, Queen of the Heavens!
Hail, Mistress of earth!
Hail, Virgin most pure,
Of immaculate birth!

Clear Star of the Morning,
In beauty enshrin’d!
O Lady, make speed
To the help of mankind!

Thee God in the depth
Of eternity chose;
And form’d thee all fair,
As his glorious Spouse;

And call’d thee his Word’s
Own Mother to be,
By whom He created
The earth, sky, and sea.
