The Salve Regina ( ; Ecclesiastical Latin: Ã, ['salve re'd? ina] , meaning "Hail Queen"), also known as Hail Holy Queen , is a Marian hymn and one of four Marian anthons sung in a season that different in the Christian liturgical calendar of the Catholic Church. The Salve Regina is traditionally sung in Compline at a time from Saturday before Trinity Sunday through Friday before the first Sunday of Advent. The Hail Holy Queen is also the last prayer of the Rosary.

This work was composed during the Middle Ages and originally appeared in Latin, the prevalent language of Western Christianity until modern times. Although traditionally thought to have originated from the eleventh-century German monk Hermann of Reichenau, it is considered anonymous by most music experts. Traditionally sung in Latin, although many translations exist. This is often used as a spoken prayer.

Background and history

Mythical antiphons have been sung, since the thirteenth century, at the close of Compline, the last Office of the day. Peter Canisius (d. 1597) notes that one praises God in Mary when one turns to him in singing. Liturgically, Salve Regina is the most famous of the four prescribed Marian Anthems read out after Compline, and, in some uses, after staging or other Jam. Its use after Compline may be traced to monastic practice by reading it in the chapel and chanting it on the way to bed.

It is poured in its present form in the Cluny Monastery in the 12th century, where it is used as a silent song at the feasts of Mary. The Cistercians chanted Salve Regina daily from 1218. It was popular in medieval universities as a night song, and according to Fr. Juniper Carol, it became part of the ritual for the blessing of a ship. While the anthem is largely in liturgical form and in popular Catholic devotion, it is cherished by sailors.

In the 18th century, Salve Regina served as the outline for the classic Roman Catholic Mariology book Glories of Mary by Alphonsus Liguori. In the first part of Alphonsus's book, a Doctor of the Church, discussed Salve Regina and explained how God gave Mary mankind the "Gate of Heaven."

It was added to the prayer series that was said at the end of the Low Mass by Pope Leo XIII.

Salve Regina was traditionally sung at the end of the imam's funeral mass by pastor priests who were present.

As a prayer, it is usually said at the end of the rosary.

History

Variations exist among most translations.

• Traditional English Translation (North America):

(in versions used by Catholics in England and in Anglo-Catholic versions, the words "mourning and crying in this tears" are used in line 5)

Hail, Holy Queen, Loving Mother,

Our lives, sweetness and hope.

For that we cry,

Poor children from Eve;

For that we send us our descriptions,

Mourn and weep in the valley of tears.

Turn back then, most generous advocate,

Your generosity points to us;

And after this we're isolated,

Show us the blessed fruit from your womb, Jesus.

O clement, O loving,

O sweet Virgin Mary.

? Pray for us, the Holy Mother of God,

? so that we may be worthy of the promises of Christ.

Let's pray:

Almighty God and Eternal, who in co-operation with the Holy Spirit has prepared the body and soul of the noble Mother of Mary to be your place of residence: accept that when we rejoice in his warning; so with our powerful intercession can be freed from the present evil and from eternal death. Through Christ our Lord is the same. Amin.

• Salve Regina is one of the Leonine Prayers, where the collection context is ultimately replaced by different texts:

Let's pray:

O God, our protection and our strength, look down with compassion on those who cry out to You; and by the intercession of the noble and defenseless Virgin Mary, the Virgin Mary, from St. Joseph's mate, from the Blessed Apostle Peter and Paul, and from all the saints, in your mercy and kindness hear our prayers for the repentance of the people sinful, and for the freedom and exaltation of our Holy Mother, the Church. Through Christ our Lord is the same. Amin.

• The United States Catholic Bishops' Conference has a more modern translation:

Hail, Holy Queen, mother of pity,

our lives, our sweetness, and our expectations.

For you we cry, poor children from Eve;

to you we send us our descriptions,

mourn and weep in this valley of tears.

Turn, then, the most generous advocate,

your compassion towards us;

and after this, our seclusion,

show us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus.

O clement, O love, O sweet Virgin Mary.

V. Pray for us, the Holy Mother of God.

R. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Let's pray:

Ya Allah, His Single Son,

by his life, Death, and Resurrection,

has bought us a gift from eternal life,

grant, please,

it while meditating on this mystery

of the most sacred Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary,

we can imitate what it contains

and get what they promised,

through Christ our same Lord.

Us.

English song based on original Latin

The Divine Office offers the following hymns as an alternative to Latin:

Hail, Our Queen and Mother blest!

Joy when all the sadness,

Live and hopefully give people,

Mother of our joy!

The children of the sinful Eve,

Sinless Eve, be friends with us,

Separated at this tears:

Strength and comfort send us!

Pray us, O Patroness,

Be our performer!

Take us home to see your Son,

Jesus, our salvation!

Gracious is you, full of grace,

Loves like everyone else,

The joy of heaven and the joy of the earth,

Mary, her own Mother of God!

Catholic missions generally list two or three verses similar to the following:

Hail, Holy Queen reigns on top, O Mary!

Hail, Mother of grace and love, O Mary!

Triumph all ye cherubim!

Sing with us you seraphim!

Heaven and earth are singing the hymn!

Ointment, ointment, ointment, Regina!

Our lives, our sweetness here below, O Maria!

Our hope in sadness and in sorrow, O Maria!

Triumph all ye cherubim!

Sing with us you seraphim!

Heaven and earth are singing the hymn!

Ointment, ointment, ointment, Regina!

And when our last breath leaves us, O Maria!

Show us your son Jesus Christ, O Mary!

Triumph all ye cherubim!

Sing with us you seraphim!

Heaven and earth are singing the hymn!

Ointment, ointment, ointment, Regina!

Like many songs of praise, many more verses exist, but rarely printed or sung. The Latin text from which these verses are translated is:

Ointment, Regina coelitum, o Maria!

Sors unica terrigenum, o Maria!

Jubilate, Cherubim,

Exsultate, Seraphim!

Consonate perpetim:

Ointments, ointments, ointments, Regina.

Mater misericordiae, o Maria!

Dulcis takes care of clementiae, o Maria!

Jubilate, Cherubim,

Exsultate, Seraphim!

Consonate perpetim:

Ointments, ointments, ointments, Regina.

Music settings

As an important component of the Compline service, the singing has been arranged for music by various composers, including Victoria, Palestrina, Josquin and Lassus. Vivaldi, Handel, and Liszt arranged their own arrangements in subsequent years. Schubert consists of no less than four versions. Arvo PÃÆ'¤rt arranged for the first arrangement at the Essen Cathedral in 2002. Olivier Latry aired in 2007 a work of the Salve Regina which reflects in the seven line movements of the chanting in the Gregorian chants.
