Original text and translations

Latin text

Gaude Maria virgo, cunctas haereses sola interemisti,
quae Gabrielis Archangeli dictis credidisti:
Dum virgo Deum et hominem genuisti
et post partum virgo inviolata permansisti.

Gabrielem Archangelum scimus divinitus te esse affatum:
uterum tuum de Spiritu Sancto credimus impregnatum:
erubescat Judaeus infelix, qui dicit Christum ex Joseph semine esse natum.
Dum virgo Deum et hominem genuisti
et post partum virgo inviolata permansisti.
