Lyrics

Ave, generosa,

gloriosa et intacta puella,

tu pupilla castitatis,

tu materia sanctitatis,

que Deo placuit.

Nam hec superna infusio in te fuit,

quod supernum verbum

in te carnem induit.

Tu candidum lilium,

quod Deus ante omnem creaturam

inspexit.

O pulcherrima et dulcissima

quam valde Deus in te delectabatur

cum amplexione caloris sui

in te posuit ita

quod filius eius de te lactatus est!

Written by: Hildegard von Bingen
