Translation:
To Christ the seed, to Christ the crop,
in barn of Christ may we be brought. 

To Christ the sea, to Christ the fish,
in nets of Christ may we be caught. 

From growth to age, from age to death,
Thy two arms here, O Christ, about us. 

From death to end ' not end but growth,
in blessed Paradise may we be.
