1. Now let us sing with mirth and joy,
Our heart's consolation
Lies in præsepio,
And shines as the sun,
Matris in gremio.
Alpha is and O, Alpha is and O.
O Jesu parvule,
I thirst sore after Thee,
Comfort my heart and mind,
I Puer optime!

2. God of all grace so king,
Et Princeps Gloriæ,
Trabe me post Te,
Trabe me post Te.
Ubi sunt gaudia;
In any place but there
Where that the angels sing,
Nova cantica,
But and the bells ring,
In Regis curia.
God if I were there,
God if I were there!
