In Natali Domini II by Mariano Garau — Lyrics
1. In natali domini
Gaudent omnes angeli
Et cantant cum iubilo
Gloriam uni deo.
Virgo Deum genuit, Virgo Christum[Deum] peperit, Virgo semper intacta.
2. Natus est Emmanuel
Quem predixit Gabriel
Testis est Ezechiel
A patre processit El.
Virgo Deum…
3. Nuntiavit angelus
Gaudium pastoribus
Christi natalitia[nativitatem]
Uni Dei gloria.[Magnam jucunditatem.]
Virgo Deum…

About In Natali Domini II
This short, joyful motet for two-part choir (SA) is sung in Latin, celebrating the Nativity of Christ. The text overflows with exultation, with angels rejoicing and singing praises to God. It recounts the miracle of the Virgin Birth, with Mary remaining ever-intact, and names Emmanuel, foretold by Gabriel. The music would suit a Christmas service, depicting the glad tidings brought to the shepherds and the adoration of the Magi. The choir is called upon to join the Church in eternal, glorious praise to the Most High for this great gift.
