Original text and translations

Latin text Passer invenit sibi domum, et turtur nidum, ubi reponat pullos suos: altaria tua Domine virtutum, Rex meus, et Deus meus: beati qui habitant in domo tua, in saeculum saeculi laudabunt te.

English translation The sparrow has found herself a home, and the turtle dove a nest where she may keep her young: at thine altars, Lord of hosts, my King and my God; blessed are they that dwell in thy house, they shall praise thee for ever and ever.
