    Auróra lucis rútilat,
    Cælum láudibus íntonat,
    Mundus exsúltans júbilat,
    Gemens inférnus úlulat:

    Cum Rex ille fortíssimus,
    Mortis confráctis víribus,
    Pede concúlcans tártara,
    Solvit a pœna míseros.

    Ille qui clausus lápide
    Custodítur sub mílite,
    Triúmphans pompa nóbili,
    Victor surgit de fúnere.

    Solútis jam gemítibus,
    Et inférni dolóribus,
    Quia surréxit Dóminus,
    Respléndens clamat Ángelus.

    Quǽsumus, Auctor ómnium,
    In hoc pascháli gáudio,
    Ab omni mortis ímpetu
    Tuum defénde pópulum.

    The morn had spread her crimson rays,
    When rang the skies with shouts of praise;
    Earth joined the joyful hymn to swell,
    That brought despair to vanquished hell.

    He comes victorious from the grave,
    The Lord omnipotent to save,
    And brings with him to light of day
    The saints who long imprisoned lay.

    Vain is the cavern's three-fold ward —
    The stone, the seal, the armed guard;
    O death, no more thine arm we fear,
    The Victor's tomb is now thy bier.

    Let hymns of joy to grief succeed,
    We know that Christ is risen indeed;
    We hear his white-robed angel's voice,
    And in our risen Lord rejoice.

    With Christ we died, with Christ we rose,
    When at the font his name we chose;
    Oh, let not sin our robes defile,
    And turn to grief the paschal smile.
