Veni, veni, Emmanuel;
Captivum solve Israel,
Qui gemit in exilio,
Privatus Dei Filio.
Gaude! gaude! Emmanuel
Nascetur pro te, Israel.
-
Veni, o Jesse Virgula;
Ex hostis tuos ungula,
De specu tuos tartari
Educ, et antro barathri.
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, Clavis Davidica;
Regna reclude clica;
Fac iter tutum superum,
Et claude vias inferum.
Gaude! gaude! Emmanuel
Nascetur pro te, Israel.
-
Veni, veni, Adonai,
Qui populo in Sinai
Legem dedisti vertice
In majestate gloriæ.
Gaude! gaude! Emmanuel
Nascetur pro te, Israel.

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 Rod of Jesse, free
Thine own from Satans tyranny;
From depths of hell Thy people save,
And give them victory oer the grave.
Rejoice! rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel.
-
O come, Thou Dayspring, from on high,
And cheer us by Thy drawing nigh;
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night,
And deaths dark shadows put to flight.
Rejoice! rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel.
-
O come, Thou Key of David, come
And open wide our heavenly home;
Make safe the way that leads on high
And close the path to misery.
Rejoice! rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel.
-
O come, Adonai, Lord of might,
Who to Thy tribes, on Sinais height,
In ancient times didst give the law
In cloud and majesty and awe.
Rejoice! rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel.
