Lyrics
1. Personent hodie voces puerulae,
Laudantes jucunde qui nobis est natus,
Summo Deo datus,
Et de vir, vir, vir,
Et de vir, vir, vir,
Ed de virgineo ventre procreatus.
2. In mundo nascitur, panis involvitur,
Praesepi ponitur stabulo butorum,
Rector supernorum.
Perdidit, dit, dit,
Perdidit, dit, dit,
Perdidit spolia princeps in fernorum.
3. Magi tres venerunt, parvulum inquirunt,
Bethlehem adeunt stellulam seguendo,
Ipsum adorando,
Aurum thus, thus, thus,
Aurum thus, thus, thus,
Aurum thus, et hyrrham ei offerendo.
4. Omnes clericuli, pariter pueri,
Cantent ut angeli: Advenisti mundo,
Laudes tibi fundo,
Ideo, o, o,
Ideo, o, o,
Ideo gloria in excelsis Deo!
