HIC ORAVIT
SUAE GENTIS IMPERITURA GLORIA
UNITATIS ASSERTOR POPULORUM
DIVUS POËTA
FIDEM CECINIT DIVINE
VIRGINEM MATREM EXALTAVIT

Jan Ziolkowski provides the following translation:

Here prayed
the undying glory of his race,
the proclaimer of the oneness of the peoples,
the divine poet:
he sang the faith divinely,
he exalted the virgin mother.

The cancellation quotes all but the first and last lines: "SUAE GENTIS / IMPERITURA GLORIA / UNITATIS ASSERTOR / POPULORUM / DIVUS POETA / FIDEM CECINIT DIVINE". The current plaque in the church was apparently installed on May 31, 1979.
