Salve Regina is thought to have been written by Hermann of Reichenau, a German 11th-century scholar, composer, music theorist, mathematician and astronomer




Salve regina misericordie
Vita dulcedo et spes nostra salve.
Ad te clamamus exules filii Eve.
Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes
in hac lacrimarum valle.
Eya ergo advocata nostra, illos tuos
misericordes oculos ad nos convente
Et ihesum benedictum fructus ventris tui
nobis post hoc exilium ostende.
O clemens, o pia, o dulcis Maria.

Alpha et omega misit de superis
gloriosum solamen miseris,
cum Gabriel a summa gerarchia
paranimphus dicit in armonia:
Ave Virgo Maria.
O clemens, o pia, o dulcis Maria.

O pastores pro Deu surgite,
quid vidistis de Christo dicite.
Reges Tharsis de stella visione
sint testes in apparitione:
Ave Virgo Maria.
O clemens, o pia, o dulcis Maria.

Fons humilis, aquarum puteus,
rosa mundi, splendor sydereus,
amigdalus Aaron fructuosa,
precantibus esto lux gloriosa:
Ave virgo Maria.
Salve regina misericordie.





English
Hail, Queen of mercy.
Our life, our consolation, and our hope, hail!
To thee we cry, the banished sons of Eve.
To thee we sigh, groaning and weeping,
in this vale of tears.
O thou our advocate, turn on us
thy merciful eyes,
and Jesus, the blessed fruit of thee womb,
show to us after this our exile.
O clement, O pius, O gentle Mary.

The Alpha and Omega sent from on high
a glorious solace to the suffering,
when from the highest rank of angels
the paranymph* Gabriel harmoniously declared:
Hail, Virgin Mary.
O clement, O pius, O gentle Mary.

O sheppards, rise before your God,
relate what you have seen of Christ.
Let the kings of Tharsis bear witness
that they saw the star appear:
Hail, Virgin Mary.
O clement, O pius, O gentle Mary.

Humble fountain, well giving forth
waters, rose of the world, divinge splendour,
fertile rod of Aaron,
be the glorious light of those that prey thee:
Hail, Virgin Mary.
O clement, O pius, O gentle Mary.

*The reference is to the angel Gabriel in the Annunciation.

The last thing the Templars did each night before retiring was to chant the great Marian antiphon the Salve Regina to which they added three verses that spoke of the mystery of the Incarnation of Christ.
