Of on that is so fair and bright,

De te genitrice.

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

Fairest and brightest of them all
Even the star of the sea
Brighter even than daylight
Mother and daughter both
I call to you ? to smile upon me
Mistress, implore of your son for me
In humble penitence
That I might come to you
Mary
Lady, flower of creation
Rose without thorns
You carried Jesus, King of Heaven
Through your divine grace
Above all others you win the prize
Lady, Queen of Paradise
The chosen one
Gentle virgin and mother
So fruitful
The whole world was lost
On account of Eve?s folly
Until our Lord was born
Through your bounty
With a final farewell departing
Darkest night gave way to day
With a greeting
All that is well springs from you
In your virtue
In sorrow you are the best advisor
Good fortune in abundance
All who are weary find rest in you
Honoured mother on high
So kindly please entreat him
He who shed his blood for us all
On the cross
To let us come by him
Into the light
