AVE, Rex noster, Fill David, Redemptor
mundi, quem prophetae
praedixerunt Salvatorem domui Israel esse venturum.
Te enim ad salutarem  victimam Pater misit in mundum, quem exspectabant omnes sancti ab origine
mundi, et nunc ((Hosanna Filio David. Benedictus qui venit in nomine Domine. Hosanna in excelsis.))   
WE greet Thee, our
King, Son of David, Redeemer of the world,
whom the prophets predicted as the Savior to the house of Israel. For the Father has sent Thee
into this world, as the saving Victim Whom all the faithful expected from the beginning of the world, and now: Hosanna to the Son of David. Blessed Who cometh in the Name of the Lord.
Hosanna in the highest.

palm-branches, they cried out, Hosanna in the highest !

After the procession the priest says :

V. The Lord be with you.
R. And with thy spirit.
Let us pray. O Lord Jesus Christ, in whose honor we have borne these palms in joyous procession :
