(LATIN TRANSLATION)

GAUDETE

Gaudete, gaudete! Christus est natus
Ex Maria virgine, gaudete! (x4)

Tempus adest gratiæ
Hoc quod optabamus,
Carmina lætitiæ
Devote reddamus.

Gaudete, gaudete! Christus est natus
Ex Maria virgine, gaudete! (x2)

Deus homo factus est
Natura mirante,
Mundus renovatus est
A Christo regnante.

Gaudete, gaudete! Christus est natus
Ex Maria virgine, gaudete! (x2)

Ezechielis porta
Clausa pertransitur,
Unde lux est orta
Salus invenitur.

Gaudete, gaudete! Christus est natus
Ex Maria virgine, gaudete! (x4)

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

Rejoice, rejoice! Christ is born
(Out) Of the Virgin Mary – rejoice! (X4)

The time of grace has come—
what we have wished for,
songs of joy
Let us give back faithfully.

Rejoice, rejoice! Christ is born
(Out) Of the Virgin Mary – rejoice! (X2)

God has become man,
(With) nature marveling,
The world has been renewed
By Christ (who is) reigning

(Out) Of the Virgin Mary – rejoice! (X2)

The closed gate of Ezekiel
Is passed through,
Whence the light is raised,
Salvation is found.

Rejoice, rejoice! Christ is born
(Out) Of the Virgin Mary – rejoice! (X4)
