Lyrics

"Nox, et tenebrae, et nubila
Confusa mundi et turbida
(Cedit hyems!)
Cedit, hyems, tua durities
Frigor abiit, rigor et glacies
Brumalis et feritas, rabies
Torpor et improba segnities
Pallor et ira, dolor et macies
Nunc amor aureus advenies
Indomitos tibi subjicies
Tendo manus
Lux intrat, albescit polus
Christus venit, discedite!
Night, and darkness, and clouds
Disorder and confusion of the world
(Be gone, winter!)
Winter, give up your rigour
The cold has gone, the hard and ice
The solstice and wildness, the frenzy
Lethargy and cruel sloth
Pallor and anger, pain and leanness
Now come, golden love
Tame the wild
I stretch my hands
Light breaks in, the dawn grows bright
Christ comes, depart!"
