Lyrics: 

Vinea facta est dilecto in cornu, in loco uberi. V. Et maceriam circumdedit, et circumfodit: et plantavit vineam Sorec: et aedificavit turrim in medio eius. V. Et torcular fodit in ea: vinea enim Domini Sabaoth, domus Israel est.

Translated Lyrics: 

A vineyard was made on a hill in a fruitful place. V. And he fenced it in, and picked the stones out of it, and planted it with the choicest vines, and built a tower in the midst thereof. V. And set up a winepress therein: for the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel.
