Original text and translations

Latin text

Adest nobis dies celebris,
adest nobis dies quo solutus nexu carnis
sanctus praesul Augustinus est cum angelis,
assumptus est cum angelis ubi gaudet cum prophetis,
laetatur cum apostolis quorum plenus spiritus
quae praedixerunt mystica,
mystica fecit nobis praevia,
post quos secunda dispensandi verbi Dei
primus refulsit gratia.
