| Regem natum angelus annuntiavit pastoribus. Eiusque voci angelorum chori concinunt, Et collaudantes clamant, Gloria in excelsis Deo, Et in terra pax hominibus, Bonae voluntatis. Noel. |
The angel announced the king’s birth to the shepherds. Choirs of angels join in song with his voice And shout with praise Glory to God in the highest And on earth peace for humankind Of God’s good will. Noel. |
