Pontifical Anthem
O eternal Rome, of martyrs, of saints,
O eternal Rome, welcome our songs!
Glory on high to God of majesty,
Peace on Earth, justice and charity!
To you we run, angelic pastor.
In you we see the sweet Redeemer.
The voice of Peter in you the world hears,
Comfort and shield of those who fight and struggle.
The forces of hell will not prevail,
But the truth, the sweet fraternal love!
Hail! Hail Rome! Your history is eternal,
Monuments and altars sing your glory to us!
Rome of the Apostles, mother and teacher of truth,
Rome, all of Christendom, the world awaits in you!
Hail! Hail Rome! Your sun has no setting,
It conquers, shining, all error and all evil!
Hail, Holy Father, may you live as long as Peter!
Descend, like honey from the rock,
The paternal blessing!
