O Domine Deus speravi in te. O care mi Jesu, nunc libera me! In dura catena, in misera poena, Desidero te; Languendo, gemendo et genuflectendo Adoro, imploro ut liberes me!

O God, Heer der wereld, Ik hoop steeds op U, O dierbare Jezus, Breng vrijheid mij nu! In boeien geketend, Door straffen getekend, Verlang ik naar U; Al zuchtend en smachtend, Geknield op U wachtend, Aanbid ik en smeek ik: Geef vrijheid mij nu!
