R. Crux fidélis, /
inter omnes arbor una nóbilis, † nulla silva talem profert, fronde, flore,
gérmine: * Dulce lignum, dulces clavos, dulce pondus sustínuit.
V. Super ómnia
ligna cedrórum tu sola excélsior.
R. Dulce lignum,
dulces clavos, dulce pondus sustínuit.

R. Faithful Cross, above all other, one and only
noble tree None in foliage, none in blossom, none in fruit thy peers may be *
Sweetest wood and sweetest iron, Sweetest weight is hung on thee.
V. Thou art higher than all cedars.
R. Sweetest wood, and sweetest iron, Sweetest weight
is hung on thee.
