Adeste fideles læti triumphantes,
Venite, venite in circulum
Ortam videte cœli cognoscentiam.
Venite adoremus, venite adoremus,
Venite adoremus Dominum.
Ecce in nostro tempore quæ nata
Veritati tibi sit gloria
Patris æterni verbum clarefactum.
Venite adoremus, venite adoremus,
Venite adoremus Dominum.
Valde exultat chorus angelorum
Resonant aulæ celestium
Gloria in excelsis Deo.
Venite adoremus, venite adoremus,
Venite adoremus Dominum.
_Translation of Portuguese Hymn, as altered._
Come hither, ye faithful, joyfully triumphing;
Come, come into a circle;
Behold, a knowledge of heaven is born to us.
Come let us adore, come let us adore our God.
O truth, to you who art just born to us,
Let there be glory rendered,
The word of God being made evident.
Come let us adore, &c.
Greatly does the chorus of angels exult,
Causing the temples of heaven to resound:
Glory be to God on high.
Come let us adore, &c.
