Salve invicta Juditha formosa

Patriae splendor spes nostrae salutis.

Summae norma tu vere virtutis

Eris semper in mundo gloriosa.


Debellato sic barbaro Trace

Triumphatrix sit Maris Regina.

Et placata sic ira divina

Adria vivat, et regnet in pace.

Immaterial

If someone wants to come into my house, he comes
If it pleases him, he stays
Myself, I refuse to plan ahead
And when I am asked
What I would take if my house was on fire
I would reply, the fire
