Original text and translations

Latin text

Ut queant laxis resonare fibris
Mira gestorum famuli tuorum,
Solve polluti labii reatum, Sante Joannes.

Ille promissi dubius superni,
Perdidit promptae modulus loquelae:
Sed reformasti genitus peremptae organa vocis.

Gloria patri geniteque proli
et tibi compar utriusque semper
spiritus alme deus unus omni tempore secli.
