Latin text

(Pars prima)
Laetus Hyperboraeam volet hic concentus ad aulam
et circum populis nuntia grata ferat:
Romulaeo iuvenis fulget Báthorius ostro
iam Vaticanae pars numeranda togae.
Auctus honos illi sed quem virtute tueri:
regalisque domus nobilitate potest.
(Pars secunda)
O patruo pariterque nepote, Polonia felix!
saecula longa tibi servet utrumque Deus.
Alter Sarmatiae invictis decus asserit armis,
alter sublimi religione nitet.
Quam merito regni Stephanus gerit aurea sceptra,
purpurea Andream tam bene palla decet.

English translation

(rough translation)
(Part 1)
Let fly this joyful song to court of Northland
and let bring good news among people:
the young Báthori now shines in Romule's vests,
then he has elected in Vatican's toga.
His honour growing but he carries it with virtue:
as it matches to royal house's dignity.
(Part 2)
O uncle, o nephew also, o blessed Poland!
Let God preserve both you for long centuries.
Either as glory of Sarmathy battling with invincible weapons,
either shining in deep religiosity.
As Steven carrying rightly the golden rod,
so the purple mantle rightly matching to Andrew.
