Latin.png Latin text

O quam mira refulsit gratia,
Sebastianus, martyr inclytus,
Qui militis portans insignia.
Sed de fratrum palma sollicitus
Confortavit corda trementia
Verbo sibi collato caelitus.

English.png English translation

Oh, how he shines with wondrous grace,
Sebastian, the famous martyr
who wears the emblems of a soldier.
But, urged on by his brothers'palm,
he comforted trembling hearts
with the heavenly word conferred on him.

Translation by Remi Chiu
