Traditional hymn from 11th/12th century, arrangement by Michael Knauer |
Solve vincla reis
Profer lumen cæcis (Profer lumen cæcis)
Mala nostra pelle
Bona cuncta posce (Bona cuncta posce)
Monstra te esse matrem
Sumat per te precem
Qui pro nobis natus
Tulit esse tuus
Solve vincla reis
Profer lumen cæcis
Mala nostra pelle
Bona cuncta posce
Monstra te esse matrem (Monstra te esse matrem)
Sumat per te precem (Sumat per te precem)
Qui pro nobis natus
Tulit esse tuus
Ave, maris stella
Dei mater alma
Receiving that “Ave”
From the mouth of Gabriel
Establish us in peace
Transforming the name of “Eva”
Loosen the chains of the guilty
Send forth light to the blind (Send forth light to the blind)
Our evil do thou dispel
Entreat all good things (Entreat all good things)
Show thyself to be a Mother
Through thee may he receive prayer
Who being born for us
Undertook to be thine own
Loosen the chains of the guilty
Send forth light to the blind
Our evil do thou dispel
Entreat all good things
Show thyself to be a Mother (Show thyself to be a Mother)
Through thee may he receive prayer (Through thee may he receive prayer)
Who being born for us
Undertook to be thine own
Hail, star of the sea
Nurturing Mother of God
