Latin text Veni, veni, Emmanuel captivum solve Israel, qui gemit in exsilio, privatus Dei Filio. R: Gaude! Gaude! Emmanuel, nascetur pro te Israel!	English text O come, O come, Emmanuel, and ransom captive Israel, that mourns in lonely exile here until the Son of God appear. R: Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel, shall come to thee, O Israel!
Veni, O Sapientia, quae hic disponis omnia, veni, viam prudentiae ut doceas et gloriae. R.	O come, thou Wisdom, from on high, and ord'rest all things mightily; to us the path of knowledge show, and teach us in her ways to go. R.
Veni, veni, Adonai, qui populo in Sinai legem dedisti vertice in maiestate gloriae. R.	O come, O come, thou Lord of might, who to thy tribes on Sinai's height in ancient times did give the law, in cloud, and majesty, and awe. R.
Veni, O Iesse virgula, ex hostis tuos ungula, de spectu tuos tartari educ et antro barathri. R.	O come, thou Branch of Jesse's tree, free them from Satan's tyrany that trust thy mighty power to save, and give them victory o'er the grave. R.
Veni, Clavis Davidica, regna reclude caelica, fac iter tutum superum, et claude vias inferum. R.	O come, thou Key of David, come, and open wide our heavenly home, make safe the way that leads on high, and close the path to misery. R.
Veni, veni O Oriens, solare nos adveniens, noctis depelle nebulas, dirasque mortis tenebras. R.	O come, thou Dayspring from on high, and cheer us by thy drawing nigh; disperse the gloomy clouds of night and death's dark shadow put to flight. R.
Veni, veni, Rex Gentium, veni, Redemptor omnium, ut salvas tuos famulos peccati sibi conscios. R.	O come, Desire of nations, bind in one the hearts of all mankind; bid every strife and quarrel cease and fill the world with heaven's peace. R.
