English translation
This is no normal scheme of things:
God and man is born of a virgin mother.
She has known no man;
the child's origin is unknown to the father.
By the Holy Spirit's power
this heavenly work has been brought about.
The beginning and end of your giving birth
who can really know?
By God's grace, which orders all things so smoothly,
your childbearing confronts us with a mystery.
Hail, Mother.
