Queen of Heaven
Regina Cæli
Queen of heaven, rejoice, alleluia: for He whom you were made worthy to bear, alleluia, has risen as He said, alleluia. Pray for us to God, alleluia. Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary, alleluia. For the Lord has truly risen, alleluia.
In Latin
Regína cæli, lætáre, allelúia, quia quem meruísti portáre, allelúia, resurréxit, sicut dixit, allelúia. Ora pro nobis Deum, allelúia.
When this prayer is prayed
In place of the Angelus, from Easter Sunday to Pentecost. Prayed standing, never kneeling — nobody kneels in the fifty days of the Resurrection.
