Loving Mother of the Redeemer
Loving mother of the Redeemer, gate of heaven, star of the sea, hasten to aid your fallen people who strive to rise once more.
You, who brought forth your holy Creator, while all nature marvelled, Virgin before and after receiving that Ave from the mouth of Gabriel, have mercy on us sinners. Amen.
In Latin
Alma Redemptoris Mater, quæ pervia cæli porta manes, et stella maris, succurre cadenti, surgere qui curat populo: tu quæ genuisti, natura mirante, tuum sanctum Genitorem, Virgo prius ac posterius, Gabrielis ab ore sumens illud Ave, peccatorum miserere. Amen.
