Monday 12 December - Quem Vidistis Pastores (Francis Poulenc)

CD Cover

Sung by the choir of Lincoln College, Oxford.

Quem vidistis pastores dicite
Annunciate nobis in terries quis apparuit
Natum vidimus, et choros Angelorum collaudantes Dominum.
Dicite quidnam vidistis
Et annuntiate Christi nativitatem.

Tell us, shepherds, who did you see?
Tell us, who came down to earth
We saw the birth, the choir of angels singing to God.
Tell us how it happened
Announce the news of Christ’s birth.
