Transcript of sound file:
1      Per me si va ne la cittą dolente,
2      per me si va ne l'etterno dolore,
3      per me si va tra la perduta gente.

4      Giustizia mosse il mio alto fattore:
5      fecemi la divina podestate,
6      la somma sapienza e 'l primo amore.

7      Dinanzi a me non fuor cose create
8      se non etterne, e io etterno duro.
9      Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch'intrate.


Translation:
1      THROUGH ME THE WAY INTO THE SUFFERING CITY,
2      THROUGH ME THE WAY TO THE ETERNAL PAIN,
3      THROUGH ME THE WAY THAT RUNS AMONG THE LOST.

4      JUSTICE URGED ON MY HIGH ARTIFICER;
5      MY MAKER WAS DIVINE AUTHORITY,
6      THE HIGHEST WISDOM, AND THE PRIMAL LOVE.

7      BEFORE ME NOTHING BUT ETERNAL THINGS
8      WERE MADE, AND I ENDURE ETERNALLY.
9      ABANDON EVERY HOPE, WHO ENTER HERE.
