1. Veni Creator Spiritus, Mentes tuorum visita Imple superna gratia, Quae tu creasti, pectora.
2. Qui diceris Paraclitus, Altissimi donum Dei Fons vivus, ignis, caritas, Et spiritalis unctio.
3. Tu septiformis munere, Digitus Paternae dexterae Tu rite promissum Patris, Sermone ditans guttura.
4. Accende lumen sensibus, Infunde amorem cordibus, Infirma nostri corporis Virtute firmans perpeti.
5. Hostem repellas longius, Pacemque dones protinus, Ductore sic te praevio, Vitemus omne noxium.
6. Per te sciamus da Patrem, Noscamus atque Filium, Te utriusque Spiritum Credamus omni tempore.
7. Deo Patri sit gloria, Et Filio qui a mortuis Surrexit, ac Paraclito, In saeculorum saecula. Amen.

1. Come, O Creator Spirit blest, And in our minds take up thy rest, Come with thy grace and heavenly aid To fill the hearts which thou hast made.
2. Great Paraclete! To Thee we cry, O highest gift of God most high, O font of life! O fire of love! And sweet anointing from above!
3. Thou in thy sevenfold gifts art known, The finger of God's hand we own, The promise of the Father, Thou: Who dost the tongue with pow'r endow.
4. Kindle our senses from above, And make our hearts o'erflow with love. With patience firm and virtue high The weakness of our flesh supply.
5. Far from us drive the foe we dread, And grant us thy true peace instead, So shall we not, with Thee for guide, Turn from the path of life aside.
6. O may Thy grace on us bestow, The Father and the Son to know, And thee, through endless times confess'd, Of both, th' eternal Spirit blest.
7. All glory, while the ages run, Be to the Father and the Son, Who rose from death. The same to Thee, O Holy Ghost, eternally. Amen
