Exsultate, jubilate

Exsultate, jubilate,
o vos animae beatae!
Dulcia cantica canendo,
cantui vestro respondendo,
psallant aethera cum me.

Fulget amica dies, 
iam fugere et nubila et procellae;
exortus est justis inexspectata quies.
Undique obscura regnabat nox; 
surgite tandem laeti, 
qui timuistis adhuc,
et iucundi aurorae fortunatae
frondes dextera plena et lilia date.

Tu, virginum corona,
tu nobis pacem dona.
Tu consolare affectus,
unde suspirat cor.

Alleluja.
