O Radix Jesse,
qui stas in signum populorum,
super quem continebunt reges os suum,
quem Gentes deprecabuntur:
veni ad liberandum nos,
jam noli tardare.
O Root of Jesse,
Who standest for an ensign of the people,
before Whom Kings shall keep silence,
and unto Whom the
Gentiles shall make their supplication:
Gentiles shall make their supplication:
come to deliver us, and tarry not.
