Emmanuel - Loreena McKennitt Übersetzung ins Englische

Emmanuel

Veni, veni, Emmanuel
Captivum solve Israel
Qui gemit in exilio
Privatus Dei Filio

Gaude, Gaude Emmanuel
Nascetur pro te, Israel

Veni veni, O Oriens
Solare nos adveniens
Noctis depelle nebulas
Dirasque noctis tenebras
Gaude! Gaude! Emmanuel
Nascetur pro te, Israel

Veni, Clavis Davidica
Regna reclude celica
Fac iter tutum superum
Et claude vias inferum

Gaude, Gaude, Emmanuel
Nascetur pro te, Israel

Veni, veni, Adonai
Qui populo in Sina
Legem dedisiti vertice
In maiestate glorie

Gaude, Gaude, Emmanuel
Nascetur pro te, Israel

Emmanuel

Come, come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel

O come, Thou Dayspring, come and cheer
Our spirits by Thine advent here
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night
And death's dark shadows put to flight.
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel

O come, Thou Key of David, come,
And open wide our heavenly home
Make safe the way that leads on high,
And close the path to misery.

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel

O come, Adonai, Lord of might,
Who to Thy tribes, on Sinai's height,
In ancient times didst give the law,
In cloud, and majesty, and awe.

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
