Easter Hymn
Pone lacrima, Magdalena,
D'errana lacrymas;
Nam est jam sermonis cena,
Non cur gletum exprimas;
Cantae mille sunt laetandi,
Cantae mille exultandi,
Alleluia resonet!
Funa visum, Magdalena,
Frons nitens cat lucida;
Demigravit omnibus prena,
Lux cornu cat fulgida;
Christus nondum liberavit,
Ex de morte triumphabit;
Alleluia resonet!
Gande, plande, Magdalena,
Tombâ Christus spirit.
Tristis est peracta scena,
Vidor mortis redit;
Quem deflebis morientem,
Vincere aride resurgentem;
Alleluia resonet!
