Tulerunt Dominum meum

Language: Latin

Our translations: DUT ENG

Tulerunt Dominum meum, et nescio ubi posuerunt eum.
Dicunt ei angeli: 'Mulier, quid ploras? 
Surrexit, sicut dixit,
praecedet vos in Galilaeam, 
ibi eum videbitis, alleluja.'
Cum ergo fleret, inclinavit se,
et perspexit in monumentum, 
et vidit duos angelos sedentes, qui dicunt ei:
'Praecedet vos in Galilaeam, 
ibi eum videbitis, alleluja.

They have taken my Lord

Language: English after the Latin

"They have taken my Lord, and I do not know where they have put him."
The angels said to her: "Woman, why do you weep?
He has risen, just as he said he would,
And he will go ahead of you into Galilee,
And there you will see him, alleluia."
While she was weeping, she bent down
And looked into the tomb,
And saw two angels sitting there, who said to her:
"He will go ahead of you into Galilee,
And there you will see him, alleluia."
