Latin text
Filiae Hierusalem, venite et videte martyrem cum corona qua coronavit eum dominus in die solemnitatis et laetitiae. Alleluia.
Quoniam confortavit seras portarum tuarum, benedixit filii tuis in te.
Gloria Patri et Filio et Spiritui Sancto.
English translation
Daughters of Jerusalem, come and see this martyr wearing the crown
with which the Lord has adorned him on this solemn day of rejoicing. Alleluia.
For he has strengthened the bars of your gates, and has blessed your children within you.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost.
