Rejoice! Rejoice!
Christ is born of the Virgin Mary; Rejoice!
The time of grace has come for which we have prayed
Let us devoutly sing songs of joy.
God is made man, while nature wonders
The world is renewed by Christ the King.
The closed gate of Ezekiel has been passed through
From where the light has risen (the East), salvation is found.
Therefore, let our assembly sing praises now at this time of purification
Let it bless the Lord: greetings to our King.
