Anguláris fundaméntum

lapis Christus missus est,

qui paríetum compáge

in utróque néctitur,

quem Sion sancta suscépit,

in quo credens pérmanet.

Omnis illa Deo sacra

et dilécta cívitas,

plena módulis in laude

et canóre iúbilo,

trinum Deum unicúmque

cum fervóre prædicat.

Hoc in templo, summe Deus,

exorátus ádveni,

et cleménti bonitáte

precum vota súscipe;

largam benedictiónem

hic infúnde iúgiter.

Hic promereántur omnes

petíta acquírere

et adépta possidére

cum sanctis perénniter,

paradísum introíre

transláti in réquiem.

Christ, the cornerstone, was made  the foundation, who joined together the walls, which holy Zion received and in which she abides in confidence. The whole city, sacred to God and beloved by him, filled with music of praise and joyful song, with fervor proclaims  God, the three and one. Into this temple, O most high God, come and in your good mercy receive the requests of our prayers; here ever pour out your great blessing. Here may all be worthy to have their petitions answered and to possess what they ask and with the saints forever enter paradise and be taken into rest.
