Loreena McKennitt "Emmanuel" lyrics

Translation to:en

Emmanuel

Veni, veni, Emanuel:Captivum solve Israel,Qui gemit in exilio,Privatus Dei Filio

Gaude! Gaude! EmanuelNascetur pro te, Israel.

Veni veni, O Oriens;Solare nos adveniens;Noctis depelle nebulas,Dirasque noctis tenebras.Gaude! Gaude! EmanuelNascetur pro te, Israel.

Veni, Clavis Davidica;Regna reclude celica;Fac iter tutum superum,Et claude vias inferum.

Gaude! Gaude! EmanuelNascetur pro te, Israel.

Veni, veni, Adonai,Qui populo in SinaLegem dedisiti verticeIn maiestate glorie.

Gaude! Gaude! EmanuelNascetur pro te, Israel.

Emmanuel

Come, come, Emmanuel:Deliver the captive IsraelThat mourns in its exile,Deprived of the Son of God.

Rejoice! Rejoice! The EmmanuelWill be born for you, Israel!

Come, come, you who rises,Who arrives shining for us;Sweep away the night mistsAnd the gloomy darkness of night.Rejoice! Rejoice! The EmmanuelWill be born for you, Israel!

Come, descent of David,Open the Kingdom of Heaven wide;Make its way highly safeAnd close the path to hell.

Rejoice! Rejoice! The EmmanuelWill be born for you, Israel!

Come, come, Adonai,Who on the top of SinaiGave the Law to your peopleIn the glory of your majesty.

Rejoice! Rejoice! The EmmanuelWill be born for you, Israel!
