1.

In dulci jubilo

Let us our homage show

Our heart’s joy reclineth

In praesepio

And like a bright star shineth

Matris in gremio

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.

3.

O patris caritas

O nati lenitas

Deeply were we stained

Per nostra crimina

But thou hast for us gained

Coelorum gaudia

O that we were there.

4.

Ubi sunt gaudia

If that they be not there

There are angels singing

Nova cantica

There the bells are ringing

In regis curia

O that we were there.

Old German Carol
