Text & English Translation
Ave maris stella
Dei mater alma
Atque semper virgo
Fœlix cœli porta.
Solva vincla reis
Profer lumen cæcis
Mala nostra pelle
Bona cuncta posce.
Virgo singularis
Inter omnes mitis
Nos culpis solutos
Mites fac et castos.
Sit laus Deo Patri
Summo Christo decus
Spiritui Sancto
Trinus honor unus. Amen.
V. Ave Maria gratia plena.
R. Dominus tecum.
Hail, star of the sea,
life-giving mother of God
and perpetual virgin,
joyous gate of heaven.
Break the sinner's chains,
bring light to the blind,
drive out our ills,
and ask blessings for all.
Peerless virgin,
gentle above all others,
gain us pardon for our sins,
and make us gentle and pure.
Praise be to God the Father,
to Christ most high,
and to the Holy Spirit,
to the three be equal honor. Amen.
V. Hail Mary, full of grace.
R. The Lord is with thee.
