How to Say the Rosary in Latin (Part 3)

June 27, 2017










Hey y'all,

Please forgive the interruption in our Latin lessons. I had intended to get these all done at once, but that never happened. Now I'm on a blogging spree here on Frugally Fancy in order to get some of these drafts that have been sitting around for a while.....

For this post, I'm doing the Rosary Meditation Prayer, the Memorare, and the Prayer to St. Michael. These prayers are technically extra prayers that are often tacked onto the end the Rosary, right after the Hail Holy Queen.

Disclaimer: These prayers were taken and checked by multiple sources. The bulk of the prayers in this series can be found on this website: 
http://www.traditioninaction.org/religious/b012rpLatin_Rosary.htm

Here's how it will work: I'll put the text of the whole prayer in Latin first, followed by the full English translation. Then, each prayer will be broken down by line. I'll give the Latin first in colored text, then the pronunciation below it in colored italics.

So let's get started!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rosary Meditation Prayer

Oremus.

Deus, cujus Unigenitus per vitam, mortem, et resurrectionem suam nobis salutis æternae præmia comparavit: concede, quæsumus; ut hæc mysteria sanctissimo beatæ Mariæ Virginis Rosario recolentes, et imitemur quor continent, et quod promittunt assequamur. Per eudum Christum Dominum nostrum. Amen.


Let us pray.

O God, whose only begotten Son, by His life, death and resurrection, has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life. Grant, we beseech Thee, that by meditating on these mysteries of the most holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we may imitate what they contain and obtain what they promise, through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

(Note: This prayer is also the collect of the Mass for the Feast of the Holy Rosary.)

 The Memorare 

O piissima Virgo Maria, non esse auditum a seculo, quemquam ad tua currentum praesidia, tua implorantum auxilia, tu petentem suffragia, esse derelictum. Ego tali animatus confidentia, ad te Virgo Virginum, Mater, curro, ad te venio, coram te gemens peccator assisto. Noli Mater Verbi, verba mea despicere, sed audi propitia et exaudi. Amen.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known, that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of Virgins, my Mother! To thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.

Oratio Michael Archangelum/Prayer to St. Michael 

Sancte Michael Archangle, defende nos in proelio, contra nequitam et insidias diaboli esto praesisdium. Imperet illi Deus, supplices deprecamur: tuque princeps militiae caelistis, Satanam aliosque spiritus malignos, qui ad perditionem animarum pervagatur in mundo, divinum virtute, et infernem detrude. Amen.

Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, cast into Hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl throughout the world, seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

How to Say the Rosary in Latin (Part 2)

June 04, 2017











Hey y'all!

Second Latin lesson! This time, I'll do the Apostle's Creed, The Fatima Prayer and the Hail Holy Queen.

Disclaimer: These prayers (with the exception of The Fatima Prayer, which has several Latin translations) were taken and checked by multiple sources. The bulk of the prayers in this series can be found on this website: http://www.traditioninaction.org/religious/b012rpLatin_Rosary.htm

Here's how it will work: I'll put the text of the whole prayer in Latin first, followed by the full English translation. Then, each prayer will be broken down by line. I'll give the Latin first in colored text, then the pronunciation below it in colored italics.

So let's get started!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Symbolum Apostolorum (Apostle's Creed)

Credo in Deum Patrem omnipotentem, Creatorem caeli et terrae; et in Iesum Christum,
Filium eius unicum, Dominium nostrum; qui conceptus est de Spiritu Sancto,
natus ex Maria Virgine; passus sub Pontio Pilato, crucifixus, mortuus, et septultus;
descendit ad infernos; tertia die resurrexit a mortuis; ascendit ad caelos, sedet ad dexteram Dei Patris omnipotentis; inde venturus est judicare vivos et mortuos.
Credo in Spiritum Sanctum; Sanctum Ecclesiam Catholicam; Sanctorum communionem; remissionem peccatorum; carnis resurrectionem; vitam aeternam. Amen.

I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and earth. And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and buried. He descended into hell, on the third day He rose again from the dead. He ascended into Heaven and sits on the right hand of God, the Father Almighty, from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Holy Catholic Church, the Communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body and life everlasting. Amen.

O mi Jesu, dimitte nobis, peccata nostra. Libera nos ab ignibus inferni. Perduc omnes animas in caelum, praesertim maxime indigentes.

Oh my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of Hell. Lead all souls to heaven, especially those in most need of Thy mercy.

Salve Regina (Hail Holy Queen)

Salve Regina, Mater misericordiae, vita dulcedo, et spes nostra, salve. Ad te clamamus, exsules filii Evae. Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes, in hac lacrimarum valle. Eia ergo advocata nostra, illos tuos misericordes oculos, ad nos converte. Et Jesum benedictum fructum ventris tui, nobis post hoc exsilum ostende. O clemens, o pia, o dulcis Virgo Maria!

V. Ora pro nobis Sancta Dei Genitrix
R. Ut digni efficiamur promissionibus Christi

Hail Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy, our life, our sweetness, our hope! To thee we cry, oh banished children of Eve. To thee we send up our sighs, mournings and weepings in this vale of tales. Turn then, oh gracious advocate, thine eyes of mercy towards us, and after our exile, show onto us, the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Oh clement, oh loving, oh sweet Virgin Mary!

V. Pray for us, oh Holy Mother of God.
R. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

There! Now you know most of the basic prayers. In the next post, I'll include the Rosary Meditation Prayer, the Memorare, and the Prayer of St. Michael, which are technically extra prayers that many people add to their rosaries.
