Lyrics of Ave generosa - Estampie, Хильдегарда Бингенская

Ave generosa (original)

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 the delectabatur!
Cum amplexione caloris sui
In te posuit ita quod filius eius
De te lactatus est
Venter enim tuus
Gausium habuit
Com omnis celestis symphonia
De te sonuit
Quia, virgo, filium Dei portasti
Ubi castitas tua in Deo claruit
Viscera tua gaudium habuerunt
Sicut gramen super quod ros cadit
Cum ei viriditatem infudit;
Ut et in te factum est
O mater omnis gaudii
Nunc omnis Ecclesia
In gaudio rutilet
Ac in symphonia sonet
Propter dulcissimam virginem
Et laudibilem Mariam
Dei genitricem.
Amen

(translation)

Hail, noble
Glorious
And the girl
You are the pupil of chastity
You, the material of holiness
What pleases God!
For this heavenly infusion
He was in you
What is the word from above
He puts himself in the flesh
You are a white lily
That God is before every creature
Inspected
Oh the most beautiful
And the most sweet
How much God delighted inthe
With the embrace of self
He placed in such a way that he was his son
The child is suckled
for your belly
he had joy
Com every heavenly symphony
Of your son
Because, O virgin, you have borne the Son of God
Where your chastity was made famous in God
Your gut had joy
As the grass on which the dew falls
He poured it with freshness;
That's what happened to you
Oh god of all joy
Now the whole church
It glows with joy
And sound like a symphony
Because of the sweetest girl
And the praise of Mary
Mother of God.
Amen
