Motet: O nobilis nativitas / O mira dei O decus virgineum / Apparuit
Quadruplum O nobilis nativitas virgo parit hodie o patris summa pietas iam spes datur venie quia dei filius natus extat in nostra specie ut mundi delicta tegeret propere. Triplum O mira dei misericordia natus eius qui creavit omnia nascitur hodie inter animalia et Maria tamen extat in partu virgo similis et post partum virgo pia. Duplum O decus virgineum casta parit hodie o laus celestium gloria canitur venie et in terra pax hominibus leticie iam decantant angeli o gaudium populi rite regis pacifici. Tenor Apparuit.
Translation
Quadruplum O celebrated nativity, the virgin gives birth today, o highest love of the father, hope of forgiveness is given now, because the son of God is born in our form, that he might speedily blot out the world's transgressions. Triplum O wondrous mercy of God, who has created everything; His son is born today among the animals, and yet Mary in birth is truly a virgin and is a pious virgin after birth. Duplum O virginal splendour, the chaste lady gives birth today, o praise of the heavens; there is singing about the glory of forgiveness, and now the angels keep singing, "Peace on earth to men of gladness"; o joy to the people of the peace-making king. Tenor He has appeared.
