Gloria, laus et honor tibi sit,
rex Christe redemptor cui puerile decus prompsit osanna pium.

Israel es tu rex Davidis
et inclyta proles nomine qui in domini rex benedicte venis.

Laetus in excelsis te laudat caelitus omnis
et mortalis homo et cuncta creata simul.

Plebs hebrea tibi cum palmis obvia venit
cum prece voto hymnis assumus ecce tibi.
