Tinniat, Tinniat, Tintinnabulum (Jingle Bells)
Nives, glacies,
nox, puertia!
Risus decet nunc,
decent carmina!
Laetos iuvat nos
ire per agros!
Traha fert velociter,
et cachinemus nos!REFREIN:
Tinniat, tinniat
tintinnabulum!
Labimur in glacie
post mulum curtum!
Tinniat, tinniat
tintinnabulum!
Labimur in glacie
post mulum curtum!Me nuper miserum
temptavit lunae lux!
Mox assidebat mihi
puella facti dux!
Vecti subito
in nivis cumulos:
caballus est perterritus
et tunc eversi nos!(REFREIN)
Solum scintillat,
nive candidum.
Repetatur nunc
concentus carminum!
Canities absit,
morosa omnibus!
Puellulas cum pueris
delectat hic cursus.(REFREIN)
Rudolphus (Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer)
Reno erat Rudolphus
Nasum rubrum habebat;
Si quando hunc videbas,
Hunc candere tu dicas.Omnes renores alii
Semper hunc deridebant;
Cum misero Rudolpho
In ludis non ludebant.Sanctus Nicholas dixit
Nocte nebulae,
"Rudolphe, naso claro
Nonne carrum tu duces?"Tum renores clamabant,
"Rudolphe, delectus es!
Cum naso rubro claro
Historia descendes!"
O Abies (O Denneboom)
o abies, o abies,
Fidissima cum fronde,
Virens aestatis tempore,
Virens nivosa hieme,
o abies, o abies,
Fidissima cum fronde!o abies, o abies,
Tu mihi valde places:
Quotiens natali tempore
Delectavisti me fronde,
o abies, o abies,
Tu mihi valde places.o abies, o abies,
Veste tua me doces:
Spes gignunt et canstantia
Semper vires, solacia;
o abies, o abies,
Veste tua me doces
Met dank aan deze bron.

To the Emperor Caesar Flavius Constantine, the Greatest, Pius, Felix, Augustus: inspired by (a) divinity, in the greatness of his mind, he used his army to save the state by the just force of arms from a tyrant on the one hand and every kind of factionalism on the other; therefore the Senate and the People of Rome have dedicated this exceptional arch to his triumphs. |
