| Text: | Veni redemtor Gentium |
| Author: | Ambrosius |
1 Veni redemtor Gentium
ostende partum virginis;
miretur omne seculum,
talis partus decet Deum.
2 Non ex virili semine,
sed mystico spiramine,
verbum Dei factum est caro,
fructusque ventris floruit.
2 Alvus tumescit virginis,
claustra pudoris permanent,
Vexilla virtutum micant,
versatur in templo Deus.
4 Procedens de thalamo suo,
pudoris aula regia,
geminae Gigas substantiae,
alacris ut currat viam.
5 Egressus ejus a patre,
regressus ejus ad patrem,
excursus usque ad inferos,
recusus ad sedem Dei.
6 Aequalis aeterno patri,
carnis trophaeo accingere,
infirmanostri corporis
virtute firmans perpetim.
7 Praesepe jam fulget tuum,
lumenque nox spirat novum,
quod nulla nox interpolet
fideque jugi luceat.
8 doe patri sit gloria,
ejusque soli filio,
com Spiritu prarcleto,
et nunc et in perpetuum.
amen.
