Text: Jubilemus singuli

Giovanni Gabrieli (c. 1554–1612)

Original Text English Translation
 
Jubilemus singuli
festum celebrantes
in honore beati Marci evangelistae,
de cujus solemnitate gaudent angeli,
atque tota curia caelestis collaudantes
et benedicentes Dominum: alleluja;
cujus benignitatem et non condignis
veneremur laudibus;
quoniam interalia dignationis suae
beneficia nobis prae cateris
hujus sancti patrocinia perdonavit:
alleluja.		 Let each of us shout with joy,
celebrating the feast
in honor of blessed Mark, the evangelist,
in whose solemnity the angels find delight,
and also the whole heavenly court, extolling
and praising the Lord: Alleluia;
and whose benevolence we honor
with unworthy praise;
for over and above all other of his favors,
he has offered us,
as a gift, his protection:
Alleluia.
