Gloriosae virginis Mariae ortum dignissimum recolamus, quae et genitricis dignitatem obtinuit et virginalem pudicitiam non amisit.

Hodie nata est virgo Maria cuius vita inclita lucem dedit saeculo.

English translation: 

Let us remember again the most worthy birth of the glorious Virgin Mary, she who both gained the worthiness of a mother and also did not lose the chastity of a virgin.

Today the Virgin Mary was born, whose glorious life granted light to the earthly life.
