    Nunc pede libero

Brandt los, mijn hert, van al wat uw
gevlerkte vlucht ombindt;
brandt los van kot en ketens, nu
de weenende ooge ontblind;
brandt los, mijn hert, 't is nu, 't is nu
dat de hemelvaart begint!
Spelling change used by Mulder and Van Rennes: brandt -> brand
Spelling changes used by Verhelst: brandt -> brand; ontblind -> ontblindt
