Lætare, cælum, desuper

After trying to write something about Easter, succeeding, and deciding that it was inappropriate for the weblog, I decided to add an Easter chant. It's a long one from the Office of Readings for Easter, and is to be used on ordinary weekdays as opposed to Sundays.

Lætáre, cælum, désuper, appláude, tellus ac mare: Christus resúrgens post crucem vitam dedit mortálibus.	Rejoice from above, O Heaven! Applaud, O Earth and Sea! Rising again after the cross, Christ has given life to mortals.
Iam tempus accéptum redit, dies salútis cérnitur, quo mundus Agni sánguine refúlsit a calígine.	He has restored the acceptable time, we now perceive the day of salvation; cleaned by the blood of the Lamb, it has glittered out of the gloom.
Mors illa, mortis pássio, est críminis remíssio; illæsa virtus pérmanet, victus dedit victóriam.	That death, that anguish of death, provides the remission of guilt; his strength remaining unharmed, the conquered one has made us conquerors.
Nostræ fuit gustus spei hic, ut fidéles créderent se posse post resúrgere, vitam beátam súmere.	Herein the taste of our hope: that the faithful might believe themselves able to rise afterwards, to obtain a blessed life.
Nunc ergo pascha cándidum causa bonórum tálium colámus omnes strénue tanto repléti múnere.	Now therefore at Easter, let us robe ourselves in white to serve, filled with vigor, for the sake of such good things.
Esto perénee méntibus paschále, Iesu, gáudium, et nos renátos grátiæ tuis triúmphis ággrega.	O Jesus, let this Easter joy remain present in our minds, and add us to your triumphs now that we have been reborn to grace.
Iesu, tibi sit glória, qui morte victa prænites, cum Patre et almo Spíritu, in sémpiterna sæcula. Amen.	O Jesus, glory to you who outshines conquered death, with the Father and blessed Spirit, for eternal ages. Amen.
