1. Ó, irmãos, cantai nesta peregrinação:
“Dentro em pouco iremos para o lar!”
Vai, então, raiar nossa eterna redenção!
Dentro em pouco iremos para o lar!

Estribilho:
Dentro em breve, sim,
Dentro em breve, sim,
Estaremos lá no lar;
E, depois de o mar deste mundo atravessar,
Nós iremos para o eterno lar.

2. Vamos os cansados e fracos apoiar.
Dentro em pouco iremos para o lar!
Seja nosso exemplo, pois, sempre salutar.
Dentro em pouco iremos para o lar! [Estribilho]

3. Há um repouso além, um alívio a todo o mal.
Dentro em pouco iremos para o lar!
Não há pranto ou dor na cidade celestial.
Dentro em pouco iremos para o lar! [Estribilho]
