	Translation
Fremuere principes, Irruere turbidi: In hoc templo una spes, Una salus Domini! Domine! Nobis sit victoria, Nostro templo gloria, Gloria sancto nomini! Cordibus ac mentibus Proni veneramur te: Salus esto gentibus In hoc templo, Domine! Nobis sit victoria, Nostro templo gloria, Templo tuo, Domine! Gloria sancto nomini!	The princes rumbled, The mad rushed in: In this temple, one hope, One salvation of the Lord! To us be the victory, To our temple the glory Glory to the sacred name! With hearts and minds Prostrate, we beseech thee: Salvation shall be to the nations In this temple, O Lord! To us be the victory, To our temple the glory Your temple, O Lord! Glory to the sacred name!
