Maddy Prior, Carnival Band In Dulci Jubilo Lyrics

Words: German 14th century, trans. R.L. Pearsall
Music: Anon. Arr. Watts

In dulci julibo, 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 Pareis caritas, o nati lenitas
Deeply were we stained, per nostra crimina;
But thou for us hast gained coelorom gaudia.
O that we were there
O that we were there

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
