O Wisdom!
You circled, circling,
encompassing all things
in one path possessed of life.
You circled, circling,
encompassing all things
in one path possessed of life.
Three wings you have -
one of them soars on high,
the second exudes from the earth,
and the third flutters everywhere
one of them soars on high,
the second exudes from the earth,
and the third flutters everywhere
Praise to you, as befits you,
O Sapientia!
O Sapientia!
