Lyrics
Beata es, Virgo Maria,
quae omnium portasti creatorem;
genuisti qui te fecit
et in aeternum permanes Virgo.
Alleluia.
Gradual at Lady Mass in Eastertide; Offertory at Mass for the Nativity of the Virgin
Translation:
Blessed are you, Virgin Mary,
who bore the creator of all;
you gave birth to him who made you
and you remain a Virgin into eternity.
Alleluia.
Written by: William Byrd
