1.
In dulci jubilo, [In quiet joy]
Nun singet und seid froh!
Unsers Herzens Wonne
Leit in praesepio,
Und leuchtet als die Sonne
Matris in gremio,
Alpha es et O, Alpha es et O! [He is Alpha and Omega]
2.
O Jesu parvule, [O quiet Jesus]
Nach dir ist mir so weh!
Tröst mir mein Gemüte
O puer optime [O best of boys]
Durch alle deine Güte
O princeps gloriae. [O prince of glory]
Trahe me post te, Trahe me post te! [Draw me after Thee]
3.
O Patris caritas! [O love of the Father]
O Nati lenitas! [O gentleness of the Son]
Wir wären all verloren
Per nostra crimina [Through our sins]
So hat er uns erworben
Coelorum gaudia [The joy of heaven]
Eia, wären wir da, Eia, wären wir da!
4.
Ubi sunt gaudia [Where are joys]
Nirgend mehr denn da!
Da die Engel singen
Nova cantica, [New songs]
Und die Schellen klingen
In regis curia. [In the King's court]
Eia, wären wir da, Eia, wären wir da!
Lyrics: A 14th Century Macaronic Carol

1.
In dulci jubilo [In quiet joy]
Now sing with hearts aglow!
Our delight and pleasure
Lies in praesepio,
Like sunshine is our treasure
Matris in gremio.
Alpha es et O! [He is Alpha and Omega]
2.
O Jesu, parvule, [O quiet Jesus]
For thee I long alway;
Comfort my heart's blindness,
O puer optime, [O best of boys]
With all Thy lovingkindness,
O princeps gloriae. [O prince of glory]
Trahe me post te! [Draw me after Thee]
3.
O Patris caritas! [O love of the Father]
O Nati lenitas! [O gentleness of the Son]
Deeply were we stainèd
Per nostra crimina; [Through our sins]
But Thou for us hast gainèd
Coelorum gaudia. [The joy of heaven]
O that we were there!
4.
Ubi sunt gaudia [Where are joys]
In any place but there?
There are angels singing
Nova cantica [New songs]
And there the bells are ringing
In Regis curia. [In the King's court]
O that we were there!
