Resonet in laudibus! Christus natus est! Resonet in laudibus, cum jucundis plausibus, Sion cum fidelibus: apparuit quem genuit Maria! Sunt impleta quæ prædixit Gabriel. Ex Maria Virgine est natus Rex! Eya! Sion, lauda Dominum, Salvatorem hominum, Purgatorem criminum: apparuit quem genuit Maria! Hodie apparuit! Resound in praises! Christ is born! Resound in praises with joyful applause, Zion with the faithful: He has appeared who was borne by Mary. It is fulfilled, what was foretold by Gabriel. From the Virgin Mary is born the King! Hurray! Zion, praise the Lord, Savior of humanity, Cleanser of sins: He has appeared who was borne by Mary. Today He has appeared!
