Rejoice, Rejoice, through You is our joy resplendent,
Rejoice, Rejoice, through is our curse now eclipsed,
Rejoice, Rejoice, the saving of Adam who fell,
Rejoice, Rejoice, annulment of tears of Eve,

Rejoice, Rejoice, inaccessible summit beyond understanding,
Rejoice, Rejoice, wondrous deepness of depth for the knowledge of angels,
Rejoice, Rejoice, Holy place where the King did establish His Throne,
Rejoice, Rejoice, who gave birth to the Life, and sustainer of all.

Rejoice, Rejoice, Mother of our Savior. Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.

Rejoice, Rejoice, the Star who announces the Dawn,
Rejoice, Rejoice, the Womb wherein God is made flesh,
Rejoice, Rejoice, through you is Creation made new,
Rejoice, Rejoice, its Maker a Child born through you.

Rejoice, Rejoice, Star of Heaven, providing the pathway for God,
Rejoice, Rejoice, for you span the great gulf between Heaven and Earth,
Rejoice, Rejoice, splendid sign whom the choirs of angels proclaim,
Rejoice, Rejoice, fearful scourge of the legions and power of ill.

Rejoice, Rejoice, Mother of our Savior. Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.

Rejoice, Rejoice, the guide to the planning of God,
Rejoice, Rejoice, the light of a mystery profound,
Rejoice, Rejoice, the first of the wonders of Christ,
Rejoice, Rejoice, in whom all His Truths are brought forth.

Rejoice, Rejoice, O Bearer of ineffable Light,
Rejoice, Rejoice, sole Keeper of the means of this sign,
Rejoice, Rejoice, ever greater than knowledge of sages,
Rejoice, Rejoice, in the hearts of the faithful you shine.
