Hodie beata Virgo Maria
puerum Jesum praesentavit in templo
et Simenon repletus Spiritu Sancto
accepit eum in ulnas suas
et benedixit Deum in aeternum

Today the blessed Virgin Mary
presented the boy Jesus in the Temple
and Simeon, full of the Holy Spirit
took him in his arms
and praised the Lord eternally.
