Nunc dimittis servum tuum Domine secundum verbum tuum in pace
quia viderunt oculi mei salutare tuum
quod parasti ante faciem omnium populorum
lumen ad revelationem gentium et gloriam plebis tuae Israhel

Now you release Thy servant, Master, according to Thy word, in peace,
for my eyes have seen your salvation,
which you have prepared before the face of all nations,
light to enlighten the Gentiles and the glory of your people Israel.
