Te lucis ante terminum - Catholic Hymns, Gregorian Chant
Loading...
Uploaded by catholicpeter on Jan 2, 2011
This video contains the 1974 revision of the hymn, of which I have been unable to find a translation. This 8th century hymn was altered by Pope Urban VIII, and again re-altered in the 1974 Roman Breviary. The chant is sung the Cistercian monks of Stift Heiligenkruez. The background art is Caravaggio's "St. Francis in Ecstasy", c.1595. The full Latin text with the translation of stanza 1 and 4 follow:
Te lucis ante terminum,
rerum Creator, poscimus,
ut solita clementia,
sis praesul ad custodiam.
Te corda nostra somnient,
te per soporem sentiant
tuamque semper gloriam
vicina luce concinant.
Vitam salubrem tribue
nostrum calorem refice
taetram noctis caliginem
tua collustret claritas.
Amen.
To thee before the close of day,
Creator of the world, we pray
That, with thy wonted favour, thou
Wouldst be our guard and keeper now.
.....
O Father, that we ask be done,
Through Jesus Christ, thine only Son,
Who, with the Holy Ghost and thee,
Doth live and reign eternally.
Amen.

I have this one: Te lucis ante terminum/Rerum creator, poscimus/Ut tua pro clementia/Sis praesul et custodiam./Procul recedant somnia/Et noctium phantasmata/Hostemque nostrum comprime/Ne polluantur corpora./Praesta, pater omnipotens/Per Iesum Christum dominum/Qui tecum in perpetuum/Regnat cum sancto Spiritu.
