In dulci jubilo

In dulce jubilo

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 always

Comfort in my hearts' blindness o puer optime

With all thy loving kindness o princeps gloriae

Trahe me post te trahe me post te

O Patris caritas

o nati lenitas

Deeply were we stained per nostra criminal

But thou for us hast gained coelorum gaudia

O that we were there o that we were there

Ubi sunt gaudia in any place but there

There are angels singing in nova cantica

and there the bells are ringing in Regis curia

O that we were there o that we were there

O that we were there
