R.  Sepúlto Dómino, signátum est monuméntum, volvéntes lápidem ad óstium monuménti : * Ponéntes mílites, qui custodírent illum.
V.  Accedéntes príncipes sacerdótum ad Pilátum, petiérunt illum.
R.   Ponéntes mílites, qui custodírent illum.
R.  Sepúlto Dómino, signátum est monuméntum, volvéntes lápidem ad óstium monuménti : * Ponéntes mílites, qui custodírent illum.

Translated Lyrics: 

R.  When the Lord was buried, they sealed the sepulchre, and rolled a great stone unto the door thereof, * And they set a band of soldiers to keep it.
V.  The chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate, and besought of him a watch.
R.   And they set a band of soldiers to keep it.
R.  When the Lord was buried, they sealed the sepulchre, and rolled a great stone unto the door thereof, * And they set a band of soldiers to keep it.
