Quem pastores laudavere See original
Language: Latin
Quem pastores laudavere
Quibus angeli dixere,
Absit vobis iam timere,
Natus est rex gloriae.
Ad quem magi ambulabant
Aurum, thus, myrrhum portabant,
Immolabant haec sincere
Nato regi gloriae.
...
Christo regi, Deo nato,
Per Mariam nobis dato,
Merito resonet vere
Laus, honor et gloria.
