O quam amabilis es, bone Jesu,
quam delectabilis es, pie Jesu.
   O cordis jubilum, mentis solatium, o bone Jesu.
Quam admirabilis es, bone Jesu,
quam honorabilis es, pie Jesu.
   O cordis jubilum…
Quam venerabilis es, bone Jesu,
semper laudabilis es, pie Jesu.
   O cordis jubilum…
Gregi fidelium da, bone Jesu,
salutis escitum, o pie Jesu.
   O cordis jubilum…
Post vitæ terminum da, bone Jesu,
perenne gaudium, o pie Jesu.
