Original text and translations

Latin text

Ure igne sancti spiritus
renes nostros et cor nostrum, Domine,
ut tibi casto corpore serviamus,
et mundo corde placeamus.

German translation

Verbrenne mit dem Feuer des Heiligen Geistes
unsere Lenden und unser Herz, Herr,
damit wir dir mit reinem Körper dienen
und dich mit reinem Herzen erfreuen mögen.

Translation by Gerhard Weydt

English translation

Burn with the fire of the Holy Ghost
our loins and our heart, o Lord,
that we may serve thee with a chaste body
and please thee with a clean heart.
