Text:
O magnum mysterium,
et admirabile sacramentum,
ut animalia viderent Dominum natum,
iacentem in praesepio!
Beata Virgo,
cujus viscera meruerunt portare
Dominum Jesum Christum.
Alleluia!
English translation:
O great mystery,
and wonderful sacrament,
that animals should see the newborn Lord,
lying in a manger!
Blessed is the virgin
whose womb was worthy to bear
the Lord, Jesus Christ.
Alleluia!
