Latin text

Mater Christi sanctissima, virgo sacrata Maria,
tuis orationibus benignum redde Filium,
unica spes nostra Maria;
nam precibus nitentes tuis rogare audemus Filium.

Ergo, Fili, decus Patris, Jesu,
fons fecundissime a quo vivae
fluunt aquae rigantes fida pectora,
O Jesu, vitalis cibus te pure manducantibus,
salutari potu et cibo pavisti nostra corpora.

Tua pasce animam gratia;
tibi consecratos Spiritu tuo fove munere.

Quin et nostras, Jesu bone, mentes illustra gratia,
et nos pie fac vivere ut dulci ambrosia
tuo vescamur in palatio.
Amen.
