Veni, Veni, Emmanuel
Latin:

Veni, veni Emmanuel!
Captivum solve Israel!
Qui gemit in exilio
Privatus Dei Filio
Gaude, gaude, Emmanuel
Nascetur pro te, Israel
Veni, veni o oriens!
Solare nos adveniens
Noctis depelle nebulas
Dirasque noctis tenebras
Gaude, gaude, Emmanuel
Nascetur pro te, Israel
Veni, veni Adonai!
Qui populo in Sinai
Legem dedisti vertice
In Maiestate gloriae
Gaude, gaude, Emmanuel
Nascetur pro te, Israel

English:

O come, O come, Emmanuel, and ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here until the Son of God appear
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel

O come, Thou Day-spring, come and cheer our spirits by Thine advent here;
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night, And death’s dark shadows put to flight

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel

O come, O come, Thou Lord of Might, who to thy tribes on Sinai’s height
In ancient times once gave the law in cloud, and majesty, and awe

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
