¶Lyrics / Text

Teutoniam dudum belli, atra pericla molestant. Omnibus o bona pax gaudia mille ferat. Laetentur cives patulo, gens omnis in orbe. In patria dulci prosperitate nova. Tota Slesis resonet, jam tota Budorgis, Omnibus o bona pax gaudia mille ferat. Turba novem Silium nova cantica cantet, Apollo aureolo resonum pectine pulset ebur, exclamant passim Charites hominesque venusti: Omnibus o bona pax, gaudia mille ferat. '''Alternate text''' Adveniunt pascha pleno concelebranda triumpho. Inclytus hic dies est gaudia mille ferens. Nunc totus gaudet populus, nunc bruta per orbem Innumerum ludunt luxuriosa novum. Omne solum resonat, jam totus Olympus: Inclytus hic dies est gaudia mille ferens. Et chorus angelicus nova cantica cantat, et ante aera non solito carmine mulcet ovans, respondet passim juvenumque senumque caterva: Inclytus hic dies est gaudia mille ferens.
