Gaudeamus omnes in Domino
diem festum celebrantes
in honorem beatae Mariae Virginis,
de cujus Assumptione gaudent Angeli
et collaudant Archangeli Filium Dei.

Let us all rejoice in the Lord
celebrating the feast of the blessed Virgin Mary
in whose assumption the angels rejoice,
while the Archangels praise the Son of God.
