Lyrics Text

O quam beatus ille vir, qui turbidos
Inire cætus noluit,
Nec ab inquieto corde consilium petens,
Turbis coivit impiis.
Errore qui non fluctuat peccantium
Nec institit vestigia.
Qui nec profanis pestium sedilibus
Consedit illudentium :
Sed cui voluntas et voluptas unica
Leges supremi numinis
Versare mente, cogitatas eloqui,
Noctes diesque voluere
