TRANSLATIONS
Regina coeli, K. 276 Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Queen of Heaven, rejoice, alleluia.
For He whom you did merit to bear, alleluia.
Has risen, as He said, alleluia.
Pray for us to God, alleluia.
Dixit Maria Hans Leo Hassler
Mary said to the angel:
Behold the handmaid of the Lord;
Be it to me according to your word.
Vere languores nostros Tomás Luis de Victoria
Surely, he has borne our griefs and has carried our sorrows;
He was wounded for our transgressions.
Sweet wood, sweet iron, bearing a sweeter burden;
They only were deemed worthy
To uphold the heavenly King and Lord.
Carmina mei cordis Abbie Betinis
I. Aeterna Lux, divinitas
Eternal Light, Divinity,
O Unity in Trinity,
Thy holy name Thy servants bless,
to Thee we pray, and Thee confess. Alleluia!
O Father, Source of God the Word,
O Word with Him co-equal Lord,
O Spirit of like majesty,
O Triune God, all praise to Thee. Alleluia!
Thou First and Last, from whom there springs
the Fount of all created things,
Thou art the Life which moves the whole,
sure hope of each believing soul. Alleluia!
O Verity! O Charity!
O Ending and Felicity!
in Thee we hope, in Thee believe,
Thyself we love, to Thee we cleave.
Thou who alone the world hast made,
art still its one sufficing aid,
the only Light for gazing eyes,
and, unto them that hope, the Prize. Alleluia!

II. Angele Dei
Angel of God,
my guardian dear,
To whom his love commits me here;
Ever this night be at my side,
To light and guard, to rule and guide.
Amen.
Daemon irrepit callidus György Orbán
The devil sneaks expertly amidst praise, song and dance...
However amiably [the Devil] acts, it is still worth less than the heart of Jesus...
Poor, passionate, undisciplined, frustrated devil!
