Text
Polorum regina omnium nostra. Stella matutina dele scelera. Ante partum virgo Deo gravida Semper permansisti inviolata. Et in partu virgo Deo fecunda Semper permansisti inviolata. Et post partum virgo mater enixa Semper permansisti inviolata.
English translation
Our sovereign of all heaven, morning star, take away our sins.
Before birth, Virgin, pregnant by God, you remained always inviolate. And in labour, Virgin, fertile by God, you remained always inviolate. And after birth, Virgin, Mother, you remained always inviolate.
