In Dulci Jubilo

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!

O Jesu parvule
For Thee I long alway
Comfort my heart's blindness
O puer optime
With all Thy loving kindness
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 for us hast gained
Coelorum gaudia
Oh that we were there!
Oh that we were there!

Oh that we, oh that we
Oh that we were there!

Ubi sunt gaudia
In any place but there?
There are angels singing
In nova cantica
And there the bells are ringing
In regis curia
Oh that we were there!
Oh that we were there!

Oh that we were there!
Oh that we were there!
