Mater ora filium
Ut post hocexilium
Nobis donet gaudium
Beatorum Ominum
Amen

Translation:
Mother pray thy son
that, after his exile,
he may grant us thy joy
of all the blessed ones.
Amen.

Fair Maiden, Who is this bairn
That thou bearest in thine arm?
Sir, it is a kinges son
That in Heaven above both wone.
Mater ora filium...

Man to father He had none
But Himself God alone
Of a maiden He would be born
To save mankind that was forlorn.
Mater ora filium...

The kings brought Him presents
Gold, myrrh, and frankincense
To my son full of might. Alleluia.
King of kings and Lord of Right.
Mater ora filium...

Fair Maiden, Pray for us
Unto thy Son, Sweet Jesus
That He may send us of His grace.
In heav'n on high to have a place.
Mater ora filium...
