Rorate coeli desuper, Hevins, distil your balmy schouris; For now is risen the bricht day-ster, Fro the rose Mary, flour of flouris: The cleir Sone, quhom no cloud devouris, Surmounting Phebus in the Est, Is cumin of his hevinly touris: Et nobis Puer natus est. Celestial foulis in the air, Sing with your nottis upon hicht, In firthis and in forrestis fair Be myrthful now at all your mycht; For passit is your dully nicht, Aurora has the cloudis perst, The Sone is risen with glaidsum licht, Et nobis Puer natus est. Puer natus est nobis. Rorate coeli desuper, Heavens, distill your balmy showers; For now is risen the bright daystar, From the rose Mary, flower of flowers! The clear Son, whom no cloud devours, Surmounting Phoebus in the East, Is come down from his heavenly towers: Et nobis Puer natus est. Celestial fowls in the air, Sing with your notes upon high, In firths and in forests fair Be mirthful with all your might; For passed is your dull night, Aurora has the clouds pierced, The Son is risen with gladsome light, Et nobis Puer natus est. Puer natus est nobis. www.davidmcgregorcomposer.com
