O magnum mysterium
et admirabile sacramentum,
ut animalia viderent Dominum natum,
jacentem in præsepio. |
O great mystery, and wonderful sacrament,
that the animals should see the newborn Lord
lying in a manger. |

Beata virgo, cujus viscera meruerunt
portare Dominum Christum, Alleluia! |
O blessed Virgin, whose womb
was found worthy to carry the Lord Jesus Christ.
Alleluia. |
