Feast of the Presentation - Adorn Your Bridal Chamber, Zion
  • I'm doing Adorn Your Bridal Chamber, Zion(Summit Choirbook #284) with my girl choir for the Feast of the Presentation this year, and I was hoping someone more knowledgeable with Latin than I am could translate the Latin for me--to help my girls understand what they are singing.

    The text in question:

    Ecce mundi gaudia.
    In te sunt solemnia.
    O Virgo Maria, Dei plena gratia!

    Many Thanks!

    UD's Mary site says you have some of the wording wrong.

    Behold the joys of the world.
    Ecce mundi gaudia.

    In you are the solemn/sacred [things].
    In te sunt solemnia.

    O Virgin Mary, full of God's grace!
    O Virgo Maria, Dei plena gratia.
  • Thanks so much for the help. Excepting the space that I forgot between te and sunt, I copied it straight from the Summit Choirbook.

    What is the address of the site you are referencing?

    Thanks,
    Marc
