<b>[Estribillo]</b> La bella incorrupta, la nave sagrada, se apresta mortales, hacedle la salva. <b>Coplas a 4</b> Alegre respira el mundo, del diluvio en que naufraga, al punto que de María riza las ondas el arca. Del huracán que soberbio, al cielo movió borrascas quebró la furia uno solo breve amago de su planta. Suavemente del divino, sacro aliento preservado, el espíritu de dios anduvó sobre las aguas. Salva debe el universo, hacer a la capitana a cuya conducta todos libros del riesgo se salvan.
