Hodie beata virgo Maria puerum Jesum presentavit in templo
et Simeon repletus spiritu sancto accepit eum in vulnas,
et benedixit Deum, dicens:
Nunc dimittis servum tuum, Domine, secundum verbum tuum in pace.

Today the blessed Virgin Mary presented the boy Jesus in the temple
and Simeon, filled with the Holy Spirit, took him on his arms.
and blessed God, saying:
Lord, now lettest thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word.
