Original text and translations

Latin text Nobis Sancti Spiritus gratia sit data de qua virgo virginum fuit obumbrata cum per sanctum angelum fuit salutata, verbum caro factum est, virgo fecundata veni Sancte Spiritus, reple tuorum corda fidelium: et tui amoris in eis ignem accende.

English translation May we know the gift of the Holy Spirit Which once overshadowed the virgin of virgins when she heard heaven's greeting through a Holy angel: The Word became flesh and the virgin fruitful. Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of your love.
