Ave virgo gratiosa,
Mater plena gratia,
Virgo mater gloriosa,
Ave dei filia.

Ave rosa speciosa,
Salutis puerpera.

Iesu Christe, fili dei,
Tota salus nostrae spei,
Tuae matris interventu
Angelorum nos concentu
Fac gaudere iugiter.
Amen

English translation: 

Hail graceful virgin, mother full of grace, glorious virgin mother, hail daughter of God.

Hail beautiful rose, mother of salvation.

O Jesus Christ, Son of God, whole salvation of our hope, through the intervention of you mother let us forever enjoy the music of the angels. Amen.
