Veris leta facies - The merry face of spring
mundo propinatur, - turns to the world,
hiemalis acies - sharp winter

in vestitu vario - bedecked in various colours
Flora principatur, - Flora reigns,
nemorum dulcisono t- he harmony of the woods
que cantu celebratur. - praises her in song. Ah!
Flore fusus gremio - Lying in Flora's lap
Phebus novo - more Phoebus once more
risum dat, hac vario - smiles, now covered
iam stipate flore. - in many-coloured flowers,
Zephyrus nectareo - Zephyr breathes nectar-
spirans in odore. - scented breezes.
Certatim pro bravio - Let us rush to compete

Certatim pro bravio - Let us rush to compete
curramus in amore. - for love's prize. Ah!
Cytharizat cantico - In harp-like tones sings
dulcis Philomena, - the sweet nightingale,
flore rident vario - with many flowers
prata iam serena, - the joyous meadows are laughing,
salit cetus avium - a flock of birds rises up
silve per amena, - through the pleasant forests,
promit virgin - the of maidens
iam gaudia millena. - already promises a thousand joys. Ah!
