Original text and translations

Latin text

1. Ad regias Agni dapes,
   Stolis amicti candidis,
   Post transitum Maris rubri,
   Christo canamus Principi:

2. Divina cujus caritas
   Sacrum propinat sanguinem,
   Almique membra corporis
   Amor sacerdos immolat.

3. Sparsum cruorem postibus
   Vastator horret Angelus:
   Fugitque divisum mare:
   Merguntur hostes fluctibus.

4. Deo Patri sit gloria,
   Et Filio, qui a mortuis
   Surrexit, ac Paraclito,
   In sempiterna sæcula.
