Text: Filiae Jerusalem

Jacob Handl (1550–1591)

Original Text English Translation
 
Filiae Jerusalem,
venite et videte martyres cum coronis
quibus coronavit eos Dominus
in die solemnitatis et laetitiae.
Daughters of Jerusalem,
come and see the martyrs with the crowns
with which the Lord has crowned them
on a day of ritual and rejoicing.
