1.
May the bright peaks of the heavens
Admire the happy lights,
Which the king of glory enters
With the triumph of victory.
2.
He who will be dying had come,
With death having been killed, returns
The victor to the stars
Having dragged off the noble booty of hell.
3.
Leaning so that he was rising up,
Having been sold so that he might be bought back (redeemed),
Wandering in despised pastures
He carries back the sheep on his shoulders.
4.
Now, flesh, despise the mud,
Proceed, earth, to heaven,
For the road where the head is
Resolved to go is scattered with limbs,
5.
Jesus, angelic splendor,
Sweetness, longing,
Make us also to encompass you
We seek with all our organs.
6.
Grant us to live in you,
Direct our heart to you;
Let your love enter
Our breasts forever.
Amen.
