Original text and translations

Latin text

Angioli: Gloria in excelsis Deo
Et in terra pax hominibus bonae voluntatis.
Pastori: Quid est ? Quod novum gaudium ?
In terra quis apparuit dum musici aetherei decantant ‘Gloria’ ?
Angioli: Annuntiamus vobis quoniam natus est
Salvator mundi quoniam venit Redemptio vestra
Et Verbum caro factum est.

Ad cantus Angelorum jungamus nostra carmina
Nostras jungamus voces.
Laeti cantemus nenias, cantemus dicentes:
Dormi pupe, dormi vita mortalium
Fa la nanna, puppe belle dormi
Jesule tenelle, sol aeterne, lux amata,
Dormi salus suspirata, carna nostra viscera.

Jubilet ergo Caelum,
Gaudet ergo terra
Omnes unanimes dicentes:
Cantemus omnes unanimes
Alleluia.
O grandis amor,
O maxima pietas,
Alleluia.
O bonitas immensa, alleluia.
