*******
Longe mala, umbrae, terrores,
sors amara, iniqua sors.
Bella, plagae, irae, furores,
tela et arma, aeterna mors.

Recedite, nubes et fulgura,
et sereno coronata fulgore
coeli, sidera, coruscate,
omnes animae super
terram et super astra
viventes, iubilate.

Descende, o coeli vox,
ex alto asperge nos,
tolle maerorem.
Resplende, o vera lux,
es tu secura dux,
sparge fulgorem.

Alleluia.

*******
Away with woes, shadows, terrors,
bitter fate, unfair fate.
Wars, plagues, anger, rages,
weapons and armour, eternal death.

Clouds and lightning be gone,
and crowned with the tranquil brightness
of heaven, let the stars twinkle,
let every soul from
the earth to the stars
rejoice and be alive.

Come down, voice of heaven,
and wash us from on high,
take away misery.
Shine out, true light,
you are a fearless leader,
spread your light.

Alleluia.
