Ave, maris stella, Dei mater alma, atque semper virgo, felix cœli porta. Sumens illud «Ave» Gabrielis ore, funda nos in pace, mutans Evæ nomen. | Hail, star of the sea, Nurturing Mother of God, And ever Virgin Happy gate of Heaven. Receiving that "Ave" (hail) From the mouth of Gabriel, Establish us in peace, Transforming the name of "Eva" (Eve). |
Nuper rosarum flores Ex dono pontificis Hieme licet horrida Tibi, virgo coelica, Pie et sancte deditum Grandis templum machinae Condecorarunt perpetim. Hodie vicarius Jesu Christi et Petri Successor Eugenius Hoc idem amplissimum Sacris templum manibus Sanctisque liquoribus Consecrare dignatus est. Igitur, alma parens Nati tui et filia Virgo decus virginum, Tuus te Florentiae Devotus orat populus, Ut qui mente et corpore Mundo quicquam exorarit Oratione tua Cruciatus et meritis Tui secundum carnem Nati Domini sui Grata beneficia Veniamque reatum Accipere mereatur. Amen. | Recently garlands of roses given by the Pope -despite a terrible winter— adorned this temple of magnificent structure forever dedicated in a pious and holy fashion to you, heavenly Virgin. Today the vicar of Jesus Christ and successor of Peter, Eugenius, has deigned to consecrate this same vast temple with his sacred hands and holy liquors. Therefore, sweet parent and daughter of your Son, virgin, flower of virgins, your devoted people of Florence prays that anyone in agony who will have prayed for anything with a clean mind and body will deserve to receive by your prayer and the merits of your Son in the flesh the sweet gifts of his Lord and forgiveness of sins. Amen. |
