In Dulci Jubilo

In dulci jubilo / Let us our homage shew;

Our heart's joy recli- / neth in praesepio

And like a bright star shineth, / Matris in gremio.

Alpha es et O, / Alpha es et O.



O Jesu parvule! / I yearn for thee alway! [1]

Hear me, I beseech / thee, O puer optime!

My prayer let it reach thee, / O Princeps gloriae!

Trahe me post te! / Trahe me post te!



O Patris caritas, / O Nati lenitas!

Deeply were we stained / Per nostra crimina;

But thou hast for us gained / Coelorum gaudia.

O that we were there! / O that we were there!



Ubi sunt gaudia, / If that they be not there?

There are angels singing / - Nova cantica,

There the bells are ringing / In Regis curia:

O that we were there, / O that we were there.
