I have always been in love with this song but I was taken back completely when I heard this beautiful arrangement performed by Swedish classical guitarist, Per-Olov Kindgren so I asked him if I may sing to his recording. We became long distance friends through the process and I hope to perform this song with him in concert someday. There is an accompanying video to the song on YouTube and Vimeo as well.
lyrics
Ave Maria, gratia plena,
Maria, gratia plena,
Maria, gratia plena,
Ave, Ave, Dominus,
Dominus tecum.
Benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus,
Et benedictus fructus ventris,
Ventris tui, Jesus.
Ave Maria!
Mater Dei,
Ora pro nobis peccatoribus,
Ora, ora pro nobis;
Ora, ora pro nobis peccatoribus,
Nunc et in hora mortis,
In hora mortis nostrae.
In hora, mortis mortis nostrae,
In hora mortis nostrae.
Ave Maria, gratia plena!
