Ava Maria, One of the most Beautiful Songs ever written is actually a prayer (Like the Hail Mary to the Blessed Virgin Mary.

The Lyrics of the original version of Ave Maria was to the famous Prayer known as the "Hail Mary". The Gregorian monks sung the Latin version:
Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum. Benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Iesus. Sancta Maria, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatoribus, nunc, et in hora mortis nostrae. Amen.
In English it is:
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now, and at the hour of our death. Amen.

This Beautiful and Uplifting song Warms the Heart and Inspires the Soul (Like A Prayer)



 
Ave Maria
gratia plena
dominus tecum,
virgo serena.

 
Ave, cuius conceptio,

 
solemni plena gaudio,
coelestia terrestria
nova replet laetitia.

 
Ave, cuius nativitas
nostra fuit solemnitas,
ut lucifer lux oriens
verum solem praeveniens.

 
Ave, pia humilitas,
sine viro fecunbitas,
cuius annuntiatio
nostra fuit salvatio.

 
Ave, vera virginitas,
immaculata castitas,
cuius purificatio
nostra fuit purgatio.

 
Ave, praeclara omnibus
angelicis virtutibus,
cuius assumptio
nostra glorificatio.

 
O mater Dei,
memento mei. Amen.
 


 

Hail Mary,
full of grace
the Lord is with thee,
serene Virgin.

 
Hail, whose conception,

 
full of great jubilation,
fills Heaven and Earth
with new joy.

 
Hail, whose birth
brought us joy,
as Lucifer, the morning star
went before the true sun.

 
Hail, pious humility,
fruitful without a man,
whose Annuciation
brought us salvation

 
Hail, true virginity,
immaculate chasity,
whose purification
brought our cleansing.

 
Hail, glorious one
in all angelic virtues,
whose Assumption
was our glorification.

 
O Mother of God,
remember me. Amen.
