SALVE PUERULE
M. A. Charpentier
( 1634 - 1'704 )
Hail, little boy
Hail, little tender one,
O little son,
how good you are.
You give up the heaven
You are bom in the world
So that you may make yourself
like us wretched mortals.
O supreme goodness!
Today lofty deity
Becomes lowly
humanity.
The eternal one is born
The immeasurable one is caught
And he is concealed beneath the
guise of guilt
O virgin who bears a child,
May thy blessed womb produce a son
by the help of God.
Rejoice, flower of virgins
Rejoice, hope of mankind
O spring which washes away
An abundance of sin.
frorn: In Nativitatum Domini Nostri
Jesu Christi Canticum
