Original text and translations

Latin text

O lampas ardens, o lampas ardens in virtute tua
o lucerna supra candelabrum posita
o Antoni serve Christi serve Chrsti
ad cuius suffragia languentum suspirat vota
confer nobis vitae subsidia
ut per tua merita liberemur ab omni periculo
et Gehennae ignis incendiis.
