Rorate coeli desuper,
et nubes pluant justum:
aperiatur terra et germinet Salvatorem. <small> (Isaiah 45:8)</small>
Ostende nobis, Domine, misericordiam tuam,
et salutare tuum da nobis:
veni Domine, et noli tardare.
Alleluia.}}

Drop down dew, ye heavens, from above
and let the clouds pour down righteousness:
let the earth open and bring forth the Saviour.
Show us thy mercy, O Lord,
and grant us thy salvation: <small>([[Ostende nobis|Ps. 85:8]])</small>
come, O Lord, and do not delay.
Alleluia.}}
