Lyric:
Venite, pastores, ad sacros amores
transite, videte in puero verbum
cum virgine natum, in palea numen,
in nocte latentem cum lumine sole
Ite greges ad pascua per montes et colles,
per silvas et calles, discurrite valles,
iam coeli nos via, jam flamma beata cum virgine pia,
iam salus optata ad Bethlehem rapit,
flos, ubi, flos campi et lilium convallium in foeno virescit,
in spina languescit
Ad pueri cunas coelestes lepores, ad virginis ulnas,
coelestes amores, properate, convolate
Concinite ardores, concinite rores,
quibus ardet, quibus alget delicatulus tenellus,
sole pulchrior puellus
Tu tamen interea, blande puer, coeli decus,
humidulos tenellos claude pupule, ocellos
En, serenat sol vaporem, ecce flores terra dat,
ponit Aeolus furores Zephirusque leneflat
Tu quoque lacrymulas, blande puer, coeli decus,
terge genis, et suspiria linque, puer, mite procul,
sonus adest, luctus abest, claude, pupele, ocellos
Jam virgo felici gaudet aspectu,
jam sopor amico mulcet amplexu
Dormit amor coeli, dormit
