TRANSLATION
O viridissima virga, Cum venit tempus Nam in te floruit Et illa apparuerunt omnia in viriditate plena. Unde celi dederunt rorem super gramen Deinde facta est esca hominibus Unde, o suavis Virgo, Hec omnia Eva contempsit. Nunc autem laus sit Altissimo. |
Hail! O greenest branch When the time came For in you And they all appeared in full freshness. Whence the heavens poured dew over the grass From there food for humans was made, Whence, o sweet Virgin, All these things Eve scorned. But now let there be praise to the Most High. |
