Gaudete, gaudete! Christus est natus         
Ex Maria Virgine: gaudete!           

Tempus adest gratiae,               
Hoc quod optabamus;                
Carmina laetitiae               
Devote reddamus.               

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

Ergo nostra concio                
Psallat jam in lustro;               
Benedicat Domino:               
Salus Regi nostro.              

 Rejoice, Rejoice! Christ is born
 Of the Virgin Mary: rejoice!

It is now the time of grace,
 That we have desired
Let us devoutly return
Songs of rejoicing.

God has become man;
And nature marvels;
The world has been renewed
By Christ who is King.

Therefore let our song
Now resound in purification;
Let it give praises to the Lord:
Salvation to our King.
