In Dulci Jubilo

In dulci jubilo
Let us our homage show
Our heart's joy reclineth
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
Listen to my ditty
O puer optime

Have pity on me, pity
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

There are Angels singing
There the bells are ringing
The bells are ringing
In regis, in regis curia
O that we were there
O that we were there
