Language: Latin 
Our translations:  GER
Angelus emittitur,
Ave dulce promitur,
Semen Dei seritur,
Igitur Porta coeli panditur.

Vim Natura patitur,
Filius concipitur,
Virgo non corrumpitur,
Igitur Porta coeli panditur.

Grex in nocte pascitur,
Coeli lumen funditur,
Laus in altis canitur,
Igitur Porta coeli panditur.

Ein Engel ist uns ausgesandt
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Latin 
Ein Engel ist uns ausgesandt,
holdes “Ave“ uns beschieden,
Gottes Saat ist ausgebracht:
Himmelstor uns aufgemacht.

Die Natur hat hingenommen,
dass ein Sohn empfangen ist,
die Jungfrau rein geblieben ist:
Himmelstor uns aufgemacht.

Herden grasen in der Nacht,
Himmelslicht ist ausgegossen
in der Höhe Lob gesungen:
Himmelstor uns aufgemacht.
