Hail true body created
without seed of man.
Hail word of the father born
from the virgin Mary.
Blood of Christ, hail, most holy drink of heaven.
Wave of salvation washing away our crimes.
Flesh becomes food, blood becomes drink,
yet, you still remain completely Christ
in both natures.
Hail, mother of the Saviour,
chosen vessel, vessel of honor,
vessel of celestial grace.
Hail, rose without thorn,
you are the flower of all flowers.
In this valley protect us,
O Mary nourish us
and receive us at the hour of death.
