Salve Regina

HAIL, holy queen, Mother of mercy, our life, our sweetness, and our hope! To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve; to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vale of tears.

V. Pray for us, O holy Mother of God.

R. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
