  Magnis prophétæ vócibus veníre Christum núntiant, lætæ salútis prævia, qua nos redémit, grátia.
With mighty voice the prophets cry: “The coming of the Christ is nigh!” His path made straight by saving grace Through which he has redeemed our race.
  Hinc mane nostrum prómicat et corda læta exæstuant, cum vox fidélis pérsonat prænuntiátrix glóriæ.
So, here our morning glimmers bright, And hearts brim over with delight At hearing such a voice resound Which heralds glory all around.
  Advéntus hic primus fuit, puníre quo non sæculum venit, sed ulcus térgere, salvándo quod períerat.
This Advent was his sacred birth; He did not come to doom the earth, But rather wounds to bind and mend By saving what was lost through sin.
  At nos secúndus præmonet adésse Christum iánuis, sanctis corónas réddere cælíque regna pándere.
The second Advent we await When Christ will stand before the gate To open heaven's blest domain And crown the saints to share his reign.
  Ætérna lux promíttitur sidúsque salvans prómitur; iam nos iubar præfúlgidum ad ius vocat cæléstium.
Eternal splendor is made known; The saving star has clearly shone. Already heaven's brilliant light Is calling us to what is right.
  Te, Christe, solum quǽrimus vidére, sicut es Deus, ut perpes hæc sit vísio perénne laudis cánticum. Amen.
You, Christ, alone we strive to see, Resplendent in divinity; Give us this vision all our days, And grant an endless song of praise.
