Plebs angelica phalanx et archangelica
principans turma.

virtus Uranica, ac potestas almiphona.

Dominantia numina divinaque subsellia,
Cherubim aetherea ac Seraphim ignicoma.

Vos, O Michael coeli satrapa,
Gabrielque vera dans verba nuntia,
Atque Raphael, vitae vernula,
transferte nos inter Paradisicolas.

Angelic host. Phalanx and archangels,
princely troop.

Uranian strength from word-nourished authority.

Dominions numinous, divine and courtly,
Ethereal Cherubim. And fire-headed Seraphim.

And thou, O Michael, heaven's governor.
And Gabriel, messenger who brings God's word,
Raphael, life-grown and native.
Transport us unto those who dwell in Paradise.
