Original text and translations

Latin text

Urbs beata Jerusalem,
dicta pacis visio,
quae construitur in caelis
vivis ex lapidibus,
et angelis coronata,
ut sponsata comite.

English translation by J.M. Neale

Blessed City, Heavenly Salem,
Vision dear of Peace and Love,
Who, of living stones upbuilded,
Art the joy of Heav’n above,
And, with angel cohorts circled,
As a bride to earth dost move!
