Latin text
Iam christus astra ascenderat
regressus unde venerat
promissum patris munere
sanctum daturus spiritum.
Solemnis urgebat dies,
Quo mystico septemplici
Orbis volutus septies
Signat beata tempora.
Dum hora cunctis tertia
Repente mundus intonat,
Orantibus Apostolis
Deum venisse nuntiat.
De Patris ergo lumine
Decorus ignis almus est,
Qui fida Christi pectora
Calore Verbi compleat.
Dudum sacrata pectora.
Tua replesti gratia.
Dimitte nostra crimina,
Et da quieta tempora.
Sit laus Patri cum Filio
Sancto simul Paraclito,
Nobisque mittat Filius
Carisma Sancti Spiritus. Amen.
