1.Eya! Resurrexit
Jesus Christus hodie;
Mala nostra texit:
Ideo concinite,
Alleluya, Alleluya,
Domine.

2.Resurrexit verè
Pro peccante homine:
Ideo sincerè,
Christiani, psallite.
'Te cantamus, te laudamus,
Domine.'


XLVI. WITH MELODY, O CHRIST, HYMN WE

With melody, O Christ, hymn we
Thy victory.
As this day saw Thee win it,
We will be joyful in it.
Alleluia.


XLVII. NIGHTINGALE, THY LORDLY LAYS

(Nachtigall, dein edler Schall)

Nightingale, thy lordly lays
Tell the heavy-hearted
Of returning summer days,
Winter gloom departed:
At thy musick thorn and thatch
Stand with rapture smitten:
On my songster roll thy match
Still remains unwritten.
