Triplum
 By way of life and by family joined
 To Christ, o John,
 Be present here and order all ears to pay attention to your words.
 The people themselves in chorus practice for you,
 They compose songs,
 They touch the noble angelic hosts with their singing.

 Thriving in body, strong of mind1,
 These are your gifts;
 Shining of heart, noble in speech,
 The ladder and bridge to heaven;
 Rejoicing in virginity,
 Well-known for your snowy purity,
 The very drops of oil lavished on your body praise you.

Motetus
 Virgin, vicar of vigour, 
 Victor in virtue2, 
 Open the throats of us singers, flowing in our larynxes,
 So that the stars may ring with our joined voices as we sing
 In harmony, and the fountains of heaven 
 May resound with its sweetness.

 O Christ, the heart
 Of your disciple touched our hearts by the faithfulness of his piety,
 A virtue to be much honoured;
 The disciple beloved of his Lord,
 John, settled down to eat
 And sweet sleep overtook his light limbs.

 A clear understanding of everything shone around him
 And he recognised the Son of the Father by his miraculous origin;
 This trance was fruitful,
 This vision certainly blessed,
 By which the connection of everything was revealed,
 Such great knowledge!

 The church is glad, the choir rejoices and all
 Peoples rejoice, those to be blessed in every region.
 Now pour out greater rewards in divinity and dignity, 
 Distinguished Dijon3,
 And may you live with the obedience that this man showed.
