Original text and translations
Latin text
Lux fulgebit hodie super nos: quia natus est nobis Dominus:
et vocabitur Admirabilis Deus, Princeps pacis, Pater futuri saeculi:
cujus regni non erit finis.
Dies sanctificatus illuxit nobis:
venite gentes, et adorate Dominum:
quia hodie descendit lux magna super terram.
