Harmonizer: | Bartholomäus Gesius |
1 In dulci jubilo
Now sing with hearts aglow!
Our delight and pleasure
Lies in praesepio,
Like sunshine is our treasure
Matris in gremio.
Alpha es et O!
Alpha es et O!
2 O Jesu parvule,
For thee I long alway;
Comfort my heart's blindness,
O puer optime,
With all thy loving-kindness,
O princeps gloria.
Trahe me post te!
Trahe me post te!
3 O Patris caritas!
O Nati lenitas!
Deeply were we stained
Per nostra crimina;
But thou for us hast gained
Coelorum gaudia.
O that we were there!
O that we were there!
4 Ubi sunt gaudia
In any place but there?
There are angels singing
Nova cantica
And there the bells are ringing
In Regis curia.
O that we were there!
O that we were there!
