Christus est natus hodie; cantate Alleluia!
Ille nos servare venit; cantate Alleluia!
Guadete, populi mundi! Vester Rex vobiscum nunc est.
Homo similis nobis etiam Deus.
Gaudete magna cum voce!
Cantate Alleluia!

Christ is born today; sing Alleluia!
He has come to save us; sing Alleluia!
Rejoice, nations of the world! Your King is with you now.
Human like us and also God
Rejoice with a loud voice!
Sing Alleluia!
Well, Emerald, now you have a Latin hymn for Eastertide (“Victoria Crucis”) and one for Christmastide (“Cantate Alleluia”). Ever think of having them set to music or anything? Get that ol’e autoharp tuned up, and start jammin’! 😉
