Sion's daughters!
Sion's daughters, sons of Jerusalem,
All ye hosts of heavenly chivalry,
Lift your voices, singing right merrily
Alleluya!
Christ our Saviour weds on this festival
Holy Church, the pattern of righteousness,
Whom from depths of uttermost misery
He hath rescued.
Now the bride receiveth his benison,
Tasteth now the joys of the Paraclete,
Kings and queens with jubilant melody
Call her blessed,
Mother meet for sinful humanity,
Life's sure haven, rest for the sorrowful,
Strong protectress, born in a mystery
Ever wondrous.
Not more bright the sun in his majesty,
Not more fair the moon in her loveliness,
Radiant as the stars in the firmament,

Perfect as the dawn:
So the Church shines forth on her pilgrimage,
Cleansed in Jordan's waters of penitence,
Drawn to hear the wisdom of Solomon
From the world's end.
So, foretold in figures and prophecies,
Clothed in nuptial vesture of charity,
Joined to Christ, o'er heaven's glad citizens
Now she reigneth.
Welcome, feast of light and felicity,
Bride to Bridegroom wedded in unity,
In her mystic marriage is typified
Our salvation.
Christ, whose joys we joyfully celebrate,
Grant us all a place with thy chosen ones,
True delights, ineffable happiness,
Rest eternal.
