Latin.png Latin text

Coelestis urbs Jerusalem,
beata pacis visio,
quae celsa de viventibus,
saxis ad astra tolleris,
sponsaeque ritu cingeris
mille angelorum millibus.

Decus Parenti debitum
Sit usque quaque altissimo
Nato que Patris unico
et inclito Paraclito
cui laus potestas gloria
eternal sit per saecula.

English.png English translation

Heavenly city of Jerusalem,
Blessed vision of peace,
Which in Heaven from living beings
As its stones is built in the stars above,
and like a bride is adorned
with a thousand thousand angels.

Glory be to you, O Father
and also to the most high,
the only Son of the Father,
With the Holy Spirit
To whom praise, power and glory
eternal be for ever.
