O Ierusalem, aurea civitas Ornata regis purpura O edificatio summe bonitatis Que es lux numquam obscurata Tu enim es ornata In aurora et in calore solis O beata puericia Que rutilas in aurora Et o laudabilis adolescentia Que ardes in sole Nam tu, o nobilis Ruperte In his sicut gemma fulsisti Unde non potes abscondi stultis hominibus Sicut nec mons valli celatur Fenestre tue Ierusalem Cum topazio Et saphiro Specialiter sunt decorate In quibus dum fulges, o Ruperte Non potes abscondi Tepidis moribus sicut nec mons valli Coronatus rosis, liliis et purpura In vera ostensione O tener flos campi Et o dulcis viriditas pomi Et o sarcina sine medulla Que non flectit pectora In crimina O vas nobile quod non est pollutum Nec devoratum In saltatione antique spelunce Et quod non est maceratum In vulneribus antiqui perditoris In te symphonizat Spiritus Sanctus Quia angelicis choris associaris Et quoniam in filio Dei ornaris Cum nullam maculam habes Quod vas decorum tu es O Ruperte Qui in puericia Et in adolescentia tua Ad Deum anhelasti in timore Dei Et in amplexione caritatis Et in suavissimo odore bonorum operum O Ierusalem Fundamentum tuum positum est Cum torrentibus lapidibus Quod est cum publicanis et peccatoribus Qui perdite oves erant Sed per filium Dei invente Ad te cucurrerunt Et in te positi sunt Deinde muri tui fulminant Vivis lapidibus Qui per summum studium bone voluntatis Quasi nubes in celo volaverunt Et ita turres tui, o Ierusalem Rutilant et candent per ruborem Et per candorem sanctorum Et per omnia ornamenta Dei Que tibi non desunt, o Ierusalem Unde vos, o ornati Et o coronati Qui habitatis in Ierusalem Et o tu, Ruperte Qui es socius eorum in hac habitatione Succurite nobis famulantibus Et in exilio laborantibus O Jerusalem, city of gold Adorned with kingly purple O building of highest excellence Who are a light never darkened Truly, you are resplendent In the dawn and the heat of the sun O blessed boyhood Glimmering in the dawn And o wonderful time of youth Aflame in the sun For you, o noble Rupert Shimmer in these like a jewel Whence you cannot be hidden to fools Just as the mountain cannot be hidden from the valley Your windows, Jerusalem Are wondrously adorned With topaz and sapphire As you blaze in the windows O Rupert, you are revealed even to those Whose faith is lukewarm just as the mountain cannot be hidden from the valley Crowned with roses, lilies and purple In a true revelation O soft flower of the grassland O sweet greenness of the apple O garnered load without pith None stoop to evil from your weight O sublime and unpolluted vessel Not drained In the dance in the old cave And not running With sores inflicted by the Ancient Enemy The Holy Spirit rings in you For you are numbered among the singers of Heaven And because you are honoured in Christ Since you have no stain What a pure vessel you are O Rupert Who sighed after God in fear of God In your boyhood And in your youth And in the clasp of love And in the sweetest odour of good works O Jerusalem Your foundation is laid With showering stones Which is with tax-gatherers and sinners Who were stray sheep But found by the son of God They ran to you And were placed in you Then your walls blaze With living stones, Who by the greatest zeal of good will Have flown like clouds in Heaven And so your towers, o Jerusalem Glow and gleam in the dawn-redness And in the incandescence of the saints And with all the treasures of God Which you do not lack, o Jerusalem Whence you, o adorned ones And o crowned ones Who dwell in Jerusalem And you, o Rupert Who are their friend in that dwelling Help us, servants Labouring in exile
