Quem vidistis pastores dicite,
annuntiate nobis in terris quis apparuit ?
Natum vidimus et choros angelorum
collaudantes Dominum. Alleluia.


Dicite quidnam vidistis ?
et annuntiate Christi nativitatem.
Alleluia.

Whom did you see, shepherds, say, tell us
who has appeared?
We saw the child new-born and choirs of angels
praising the Lord, alleluia.


Pray say, what did you see?
And tell us of Christ's nativity.
We saw the child new-born and choirs of angels
praising the Lord, alleluia.
