{{Translation|Esperanto|
Bim bom! Sonas en ĉiel’
Resono sonorila.
Bim bom! Sonas de anĝel’
La kanto tre jubila:
:Gloru ni, hosana en la alto!
 
Ankaŭ tie ĉi sur ter’
Preĝeja tur’ sonoru.
Kantoj fluu tra aer’,
Ĉar Dion ni adoru:
:Gloru ni, hosana en la alto!
 
Pie preĝu en maten’,
Vi kantu en vespero.
Ĉie reĝu la refren’,
Vi ĉantu kun sincero:
:Gloru ni, hosana en la alto!}}

Ding, dong! Merrily on high
In heav'n the bells are ringing
Ding, dong! Verily the sky
Is riv'n with angel singing
Gloria, Hosanna in excelsis.

E'en so here below, below
Let steeple bells be swungen
And i-o, i-o, i-o
By priest and people sungen
Gloria, Hosanna in excelsis.

Pray ye dutifully prime
Your matin chime, ye ringers
May ye beautifully rime
Your evetime song, ye singers
Gloria, Hosanna in excelsis.

Bim bom! Sonas en ĉiel’
Resono sonorila.
Bim bom! Sonas de anĝel’
La kanto tre jubila:
Gloru ni, hosana en la alto!

Ankaŭ tie ĉi sur ter’
Preĝeja tur’ sonoru.
Kantoj fluu tra aer’,
Ĉar Dion ni adoru:
Gloru ni, hosana en la alto!

Pie preĝu en maten’,
Vi kantu en vespero.
Ĉie reĝu la refren’,
Vi ĉantu kun sincero:
Gloru ni, hosana en la alto!
