- Iam vana noctis décidant,
mentis reátus súbruat,
quicquid tenébris hórridum
nox áttulit culpæ, cadat,
- Ut mane illud últimum,
quod præstolámur cérnui,
in lucem nobis éffluat,
dum hoc canóre cóncrepat.
- Deo Patri sit glória
eiúsque soli Fílio
cum Spíritu Paráclito,
in sempitérna sǽcula. Amen.

- Let night’s vanities now fall away,
let the mind’s guilt fall away;
those horrid things of darkness
which sin’s night has brought: let it fall,
- So that the final dawn might flow
out onto us who bow down
in watchful expectation
while this melody resounds.
- Glory to God the Father
and to his only Son
with the Spirit Paraclete,
into eternal ages. Amen.
