Regina Coeli

Apr 8, 2012

The Marian Anthem that replaces the Angelus for the Easter season, is the Regina Coeli.

The English translation:

Queen of Heaven, rejoice, alleluia.
For He whom you did merit to bear, alleluia.
Has risen, as He said, alleluia.
Pray for us to God, alleluia.
V. Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary, alleluia.
R. For the Lord has truly risen, alleluia.
