Tra l’oscure ombre funeste, splende al giusto il ciel sereno, serba ancor nelle tempeste la sua pace un fido cor. Alme belle, ah sì, godete! Né alcun fia che turbi audace, quella gioia e quella pace, di cui solo è Dio l’autor.

Parmi les ombres funestes, le ciel serein brille encore, au milieu de la tempête est préservée encore la paix par le cœur fidèle. Belles âmes, ah, réjouissez-vous ! Que personne ne trouble avec audace cette joie et cette paix dont seul Dieu est l'auteur.
