ad
núptias ingréssa es
ætérni
regis glóriæ,
quem
laudant turbæ cælicæ.
Grata
convíva súperis,
cælésti
sponso iúngeris
ampléxu
casti fœderis,
pudóris
dives méritis.
Normam
vivéndi ínstrue,
nos
prece tua cónfove,
possímus
ut resístere
hostis
nostri versútiæ.
Exémplar
vitæ vírginum,
María
roget Fílium,
ut
eius adiutórium
nos
iuvet per exsílium.
Sit
Deitáti glória
per
infiníta sæcula
pro
vírginis victória,
qua
gaudet cæli cúria. Amen.
With your lamp prepared, O Virgin, you enter the
wedding feast of the King of eternal glory, whom the heavenly hosts praise.
Happy companion of the saints you are joined to the heavenly Spouse embraced in
a chaste covenant, rich in the merits of purity. Instruct us in pattern of
life, bless by your prayers, that we might be able to resist the craftiness of
our enemy. Mary, model of the virgins’
life, pray to your Son, that he may aid us by his help through our exile. Glory
to the Divine Godhead through endless ages for the victory of this virgin for
which the heavenly courts rejoice. Amen

devóta
plebs sollémnia,
dum
in cælórum cúlmine
hæc
virgo micat glória.
Virgo,
quæ Christi láudibus
vacávit
iam viríliter,
sanctórum
nunc agmínibus
coniúngitur
felíciter.
Vicit
per pudicítiam
infírmæ
carnis vítium;
sprevit
mundi blandítiam
Christi
sequens vestígium.
Per
hanc nos, Christe, dírige
servans
a cunctis hóstibus;
culpárum
lapsus córrige
nos
ímbuens virtútibus.
Iesu,
tibi sit glória,
qui
natus es de Vírgine,
cum
Patre et almo Spíritu,
in
sempitérna sæcula. Amen.
The devout people celebrate this solemnity with a
sweet hymn, while in the heights of heaven this virgin shines in glory. The
virgin, who once was free bravely to sing the praises of Christ, now is happily
joined to the company of the saints. She conquered through purity the faults of
weak flesh, she spurned the flattery of the world, following in the steps of Christ. Through her, O Christ, direct us, saving us
from all enemies, correct our lapses into sin, filling us with the virtues.
Jesus, to you be glory, born of a Virgin, with the Father and loving Spirit,
through eternal ages. Amen.

Iesu, coróna vírginum,
quem
Mater illa cóncipit
quæ

hæc
vota clemens áccipe,
Qui

sponsus

Quocúmque

hymnósque
dulces pérsonant.
Te
deprecámur, lárgius
