Hymnus
Ætérne sol, qui lúmine creáta comples ómnia, supréma lux et méntium, te corda nostra cóncinunt.
Tuo fovénte Spíritu, hic viva luminária fulsére, per quæ sæculis patent salútis sémitæ.

Horum corónæ párticeps, doctrína honéstus lúcida, hic vir beátus splénduit quem prædicámus láudibus.
Ipso favénte, quǽsumus, nobis, Deus, percúrrere da veritátis trámitem, possímus ut te cónsequi.
