Te lucis ante terminum Rerum
creator poscimus Ut solite clementia, Sis Praesul et custodia. Procul recedant somnia Et noctium phantasmata Hostemque nostrum comprime Ne polluantur corpora Praesta, Pater omnipotens Per jesu Christum Domoinum Que tecum perpetuum Regnat cum Sancto Spiritu. Amen. |
To You before the day’s end We pray, creator of all things, That by Your clemency You might be our grand keeper. Put nightmares far from us, And night terrors, And restrain our enemies That our bodies may not know pollution Grant this, Father almighty Through Jesus Christ our Lord, Who through all ages reigns With the Holy Spirit. Amen. |
