Salve Regina

Let’s Pray with the Mary Immaculate Parish Choir the Salve Regina.

Salve Regina

The Mary Immaculate Parish choir sings the Salve Regina, also known as the Hail Holy Queen, a cherished Marian hymn composed in Latin during the Middle Ages and originally sung as a processional chant. This sacred prayer is one of the four traditional Marian antiphons, each linked to particular seasons of the Church’s liturgical calendar, and is especially revered during Ordinary Time as a profound expression of devotion to Mary. Join The Brisbane Oratory in Formation in lifting this hymn in prayer, asking the Blessed Virgin Mary to intercede for us and draw us closer to her Son.

Salve, Regina, Mater misericordiae, vita, dulcedo, et spes nostra, salve. ad te clamamus exsules filii Evae, ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes in hac lacrimarum valle. Eia, ergo, advocata nostra, illos tuos misericordes oculos ad nos converte; et Iesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui, nobis post hoc exsilium ostende. O clemens, O pia, O dulcis Virgo Maria.
