In Dulci Jubilo 6 Lyrics

1. In dulci iubilo
Now sing we all i-o
He, my love, my wonder,
Li'th in presepio,
Like any sunbeam, yonder,
Ma tris in gremio;
Alpha es et O,
Alpha es et O.

2. O Jesu parvule
I yearn for Thee alway;
Listen to my ditty.
O puer optime,
Have pity on me, pity:
O princeps gloriae
Trahe me post te,
Trahe me post te.

3. O Patris Charitas,
O hati lenitas;
All with us was over,
Per nostra crimina:
But them thou didst recover
Celorum gaudia
O that we were there!
O that we were there!

4. Ubi sunt gaudia
If that they be not there?
Angels there were singing,
Nova cantica
Sweet bells the while are ringing
In regis curia
O that we were there!
O that we were there!
