Latin text
Heroum soboles, amor orbis
Carole nostri solus es
afflicto Musarum tempore alumnos
qui colis et facili largiris munera dextra:
Propterea celebrat musica diva libenter laudibus
et meritis ad sidera tollere gestit:
Vive diu Austriacae
spes optima maxima gentis.
|
German translation
Nachkomme von Helden, Liebreiz unserer Welt,
Karl, du bist der einzige, der in Zeiten der Bedrängnis
die Schüler der Musen unterstützt
und ihnen mit freigiebiger Hand Gaben reichst;
deshalb feiert dich die göttliche Musik mit Freuden
und freut sich, dich mit verdientem Loblied
zu den Sternen zu erheben:
Lebe lang, du größte und beste Hoffnung
des österreichischen Volks.
|
English translation
Descendant of heroes, love of the world,
Charles, you are the only one who, in time of distress,
supports the disciples of the Muses
and gives them generous rewards;
Thence divine music celebrates you with joy
and rejoices to exalt you in deserved praise to the stars:
Long live, greatest and best hope
of the Austrian people.
