A Hymn to the Virgin歌词完整版
Of one that is so fair and bright
Velut maris stella, [Like a star of the sea
Brighter than the day is light,
Parens et puella: [Both mother and maiden
I cry to thee, thou see to me,
Lady, pray thy Son for me,
Tam pia, [So pure
That I may come to thee.
Maria!
All this world was forlorn
Eva peccatrice, [Because of Eve, a sinner
Till our Lord was y-born
De te genetrice. [Through you, his mother
With ave it went away
Darkest night, and comes the day
Salutis; [Of salvation
The well springeth out of thee.
Virtutis. [Of virtue
Lady, flow'r of ev'rything,
Rosa sine spina, [Rose without thorn
Thou bare Jesu, Heaven's King,
Gratia divina: [By divine grace
Of all thou bear'st the prize,
Lady, queen of paradise
Electa. [Chosen
Maid mild, mother es Effecta.
Effecta. [You are made
