Fr. McNabb's translation

Ode in Honour of the Holy Immaculate Most Blessed Glorious Lady Mother of God and Ever Virgin Mary, trans. Vincent McNabb, O.P. (Ditchling, Sussex: Pepler & Sewell, 1934)

appears in pt. 4, ch. 2 of Gambero, Mary and the Fathers of the Church: The Blessed Virgin Mary in Patristic Thought.

Bilingual 🇬🇷-🇻🇦 text is found in Patrologia Græca (PG) 92 1335-48 [PDF pp. 677-83].

The refrain ℟ "Χαῖρε νύμφη ἀνύμφευτε" is translated variously:

"Hail, Virgin and unmarried bride" (Gambero)

"Hail, O Virgin and Bride ever pure!" (My Faithful Guide to The Byzantine Melkite Liturgy) [←This seems to be the most comprehensive transl.]

"Hail! Bride unbrided!" (McNabb)

"Ave, sponsa innupta. " (Migne)
