Venite, exultemus Domino

Language: Latin

Our translations: ENG SPA

Venite exultemus Domino,
Jubilemus Deo nostro
Et procidentes adoremus Eum
In salutari altaris convivio.

Hic enim adest suprema majestatis
Altitudo infinita et incarne adoranda
Vera Jesu presentia.

O immensus amor,
O admirabile convivio,
O adorabile misterium.

Vox nulla potest dicere,
Nec mens valat concipere
Qua sit cordis picum ditas,
Dulcedo et suavitas
De carne Jesu credere,
Devotu Christi bilere
In sacro sancta hostia.
Venite ergo, venite omnes
Et admiramini,
Gustate libate coelorum delicias
In mensa Domini.

Note: the first two lines come from Psalm 94 (95) line 1.

Venid, alegrémonos en el Señor

Language: Spanish (Español) after the Latin

Venid, alegrémonos en el Señor, 
regocijémonos en nuestro Dios, 
y vayamos a adorarlo 
en el salutífero banquete del altar. 

Aquí está presente la excelsitud infinita 
de la suprema majestad, y para ser adorada en su carne, 
la verdadera presencia de Jesús. 

Oh inmenso amor, 
admirable banquete, 
oh adorable misterio. 

Ninguna voz puede decir
ni mente alguna concebir
la alegría del corazón, 
la dulzura y suavidad 
de comer la carne de Jesús
y beber la bebida de Cristo
en la sacrosanta hostia. 
Venid, pues, venid todos, 
admiraos, 
gustad y probad las delicias celestiales
en la mesa del Señor.
