Lyrics:

Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.
Spiritus Domini replevit orbem terrarum, alleluia.

Non vos relinquam orphanos;
vado, et venion ad vos,
et gaudebit cor vestrum, alleluia.

Veni Creator Spiritus,
Mentes tuorum visita:
Imple superna gratia
Quae tu creasti pectora. Amen

English translation:
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.
The Spirit of the Lord has filled the whole world, alleluia.

I will not leave you orphans;
I go, and I come again to you,
and your heart shall rejoice, alleluia.

Come, Holy Spirit, Creator come,
From thy bright heavenly throne!
Come, take possession of our souls,
And make them all thine own! Amen.
