Síle frágor ac rérum tumúltus,
fúge pávor qui péctore ráucus anhélas.
Psállere nos síne et nóstros aequáre módos.
Urget ámor Músae
ópprimens iúrgia írae,
cum ecclésia résonat dulcóre cárminis nóstri
et vóces sólidae audiéntium áures demúlcent.

Súscipe, deitátis máter,
vócum praecórdia nóstra,
et náto refúnde vóta,
quae psállimus ómnes.
Nunc fóntem adíre décet,
quo Bácchus insédet ípse
et discédat lÿmpha
líberos dum cárpimus rívos.
Amen.

English.png English translation

Be silent, noise and bustle of the world;
fly, fear, that breathes hoarsely in the breast.
Allow us to sing and keep in tune.
Love of the muse impels,
suppressing the quarrels of anger,
when the church echoes to the sweetness of our song
and our firm voices charm the listeners' ears.

Receive, Mother of the Godhead,
our hearts through our voices,
and to your Son pass on the prayers
that we all sing.
Now it is meet to approach the fountain
where Bacchus himself is enthroned,
and let water depart
while we draw the free streams.
Amen.
