Original text and translations

Latin text

Laetentur coeli, et exsultet terra.
Quoniam hodie nobis caelorum
Rex de Virgine nasci dignatus est.
Gaudeat exercitus Angelorum.
Quia salus aeterna humano generi.
Apparuit exultent sancti,
Quoniam hodie illuxit nobis.
Dies redemptionis nostrae
reparationis antiquae et felicitatis aeternae.
Alleluia.
