Original text and translations

Latin text Refrain: Gaudete! Gaudete! Christus est natus ex Maria virgine. Gaudete! Tempus adest gratiae, hoc quod optabamus; carmina laetitiae devote reddamus. Refrain. Deus homo factus est, natura mirante; mundus renovatus est a Christo regnante. Refrain. Ezechiellis porta clausa pertransitur; unde lux est orta, salus invenitur. Refrain. Ergo nostra contio psallat iam in lustro; Benedicat Domino; salus regi nostro. Refrain. German translation by Martin Schubert Refrain: Freut euch, freut euch! Christus ist von der Jungfrau Maria geboren worden. Freut euch! Die Zeit der Gnade ist gekommen, was wir uns gewünscht haben; demütig wollen wir Lieder der Freude singen. Refrain. Gott ist Mensch geworden, während sich die Natur wundert; die Welt ist erneuert worden, indem Christus regiert. Refrain. Die geschlossene Tür des Hesekiel ist durchschritten worden; woher das Licht geboren wurde, daher ist das Heil gekommen. Refrain. Also singe unsere Versammlung jetzt Zeiten der Reinigung; sie lobsinge dem Herrn; Heil sei unserem König! Refrain.

English translation Refrain: Rejoice! Rejoice! Christ is born of the Virgin Mary. Rejoice! At this time of grace and longed-for blessing, Love faithfully offers a song of praise. Refrain. God is made human in this wonderful birth: The world is cleansed through the rule of Christ. Refrain. The gate of heaven now opens which to us was closed, Sending forth transforming light through which holiness is found. Refrain. Therefore we meet in pure songs of joy; We bless the Lord, King of our Salvation. Refrain. Alternative translation Refrain: Rejoice! Rejoice! Christ is born of the Virgin Mary: Rejoice! The time of grace has come for which we have prayed; Let us devoutly sing songs of joy. Refrain. God is made man, while nature wonders; The world is renewed by Christ the King. Refrain. The closed gate of Ezekiel has been passed through; From where the Light has risen; salvation is found. Refrain. Therefore, let our assembly sing praises now at this time of purification; Let it bless the Lord: greetings to our King. Refrain.
