The Choir of St John's College and Cambridge - Salve Regina

Salve Regina, Mater misericordiae
Vita, dulcedo et spes nostra, salve
Ad te clamamus, exsules filii Evae
Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes
In hac lacrimarum valle.

Eja ergo, advocata nostra
Illos tuos misericordes oculos ad nos converte
Et Jesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui
Nobis post hoc exsilium hostende ostende
O clemens, O pia, O dulcis virgo Maria.

(Hail Holy Queen, Mother of mercy
Hail 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 valley of tears.

Turn, then, O most gracious advocate
Thine eyes of mercy towards us
And after this our exile
Show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus
O clement, O loving, O sweet virgin Mary.)
