Hodie salvator mundi natus est.
Venite adoremus.

Parvulus enim natus est nobis,
et filius datus est nobis,
et vocabitur nomen eius Emmanuel, Deus fortis, princeps pacis, pater futuri saeculi.
Noe noe noe

Laetentur caeli et exultet terra,
quia salvator mundi natus est ex virgine Maria.

Angelus ad pastores ait: annuncio vobis gaudium magnum, quia natus est rex angelorum.
Pastores dicite quidnam vidistis et annunciate Christi nativitate.
Noe noe noe

Infantem vidimus, panis involutum
et choros angelorum laudantes salvatorem.
