4. Omnia Sol Temperat<br />
(<strong>Bar</strong>itone)<br />
Omnia sol temperat<br />
Purus et subtilis,<br />
Nova mundo reserat<br />
Faciem Aprilis,<br />
Ad Amorem properat<br />
Animus herilis<br />
Et iocundis imperat<br />
Deus puerilis.<br />
Rerum tanta novitas<br />
In solemni vere<br />
Et veris auctoritas<br />
Jubet nos gaudere,<br />
Vias prebet solitas,<br />
Et in tuo vere<br />
Fides est et probitas<br />
Tuum retinere.<br />
Ama me fideliter!<br />
Fidem meam nota:<br />
De corde totaliter<br />
Et ex mente tota<br />
Sum presentialiter<br />
Absens in remota,<br />
Quisquis amat taliter<br />
Volvitur in rota.<br />
5. Ecce Gratum<br />
(Choir)<br />
Ecce gratum et optatum<br />
Ver reducit gaudia,<br />
Purpuratum floret pratum,<br />
Sol serenat omnia.<br />
Iamiam cedant tristia!<br />
Estas redit, nunc recedit<br />
Hyemis sevitia.<br />
Iam liquescit et decrescit<br />
grando nix et cetera,<br />
Bruma fugit, et iam sugit<br />
Ver Estatis ubera;<br />
Illi mens est misera,<br />
qui nec vivit, nec lascivit<br />
sub Estatis dextera;<br />
Gloriantur et letantur<br />
in melle dulcedinis,<br />
Qui conantur, ut utantur<br />
premio Cupidinis;<br />
Simus iussu Cypridis,<br />
gloriantes et letantes<br />
pares esse Paridis.<br />
4. All things are tempered by the Sun<br />
(<strong>Bar</strong>itone)<br />
<strong>The</strong> sun, pure and fine,<br />
Brings mildness to all;<br />
It shows anew to the world<br />
<strong>The</strong> face of April;<br />
<strong>The</strong> spirit of the young man<br />
Hastens to love,<br />
And the boy-god<br />
Rules over all pleasures.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re is a renewal of all things<br />
In spring’s annual rites<br />
And spring’s power<br />
Bids us rejoice;<br />
It presents its familiar paths,<br />
Yet in your own springtime<br />
Faith and virtue demand<br />
That you hold fast your own.<br />
Love me faithfully!<br />
Mark my faithfulness:<br />
With all my heart<br />
And with all my mind,<br />
I am here with you<br />
Even when I am far away.<br />
Whoever loves so much<br />
Is turned on the wheel.<br />
5. Behold the welcome<br />
(Choir)<br />
Behold how pleasing and longed for<br />
Spring brings back joy,<br />
<strong>The</strong> fields bloom in violet,<br />
the Sun brightens all.<br />
Now let sadness cease!<br />
Summer returns, now disappears<br />
winter’s savagery.<br />
Now melt and dissipate<br />
ice and snow and all of that.<br />
Winter flees, and now Spring<br />
suckles at Summer’s breast.<br />
That man has a pitiable mind<br />
who does not embrace life, who does not revel<br />
under Summer’s right hand.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y glory and delight<br />
in the honey of sweetness;<br />
who strive for and enjoy<br />
Cupid’s prize.<br />
Let us be subject to Venus,<br />
glorying and delighting<br />
to be like Paris [favorite of the Goddess of Love].<br />
