motet by Victoria
lyrics:
Vidi speciosam,
sicut columbam
ascendentem desuperivos
aqua-rum,
cuius inaestimabilis
odor erat nimis
in vestimentis eius.
Et sicut dies verni
circumdabant eam flores
rosarum et lilia
convallium.
Quae est ista quae
ascendit per desertum,
sicut virgula fumi,
ex aromatibus
myrrhae et thuris?
Hermoso!

Este motete está basado en textos del Cantar de los Cantares y si no estoy mal es una misa para el día de la Asunción de la Santísima Virgen.

Vidi speciosam..
I saw her, a precious thing, ascending like a dove above the river of waters, and about her garments was a wonderful odor, as it was in the days of spring, of roses and lilies of the valley.
Who is this rising from out of the desert, a wisp of smoke with the aroma of myrrh and incense? And it was as in the days of spring, of roses and lilies of the valley.
Solomon describes his love; the Church describes Mary; Christians describe the Church.
