O filii et filiae,
Rex caelestis, Rex gloriae
morte surrexit hodie

Alleluia

Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia

Ex mane prima Sabbati
ad ostium monumenti
accesserunt discipuli.

Alleluia

Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia

Et Maria Magdalene,
et Iacobi, et Salome
Venerunt corpus ungere

Alleluia

Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia

Beati qui non viderunt
et firmiter crediderunt;
vitam aeternam habebunt

Alleluia

Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia

Ex quibus nos humillimas
devotas atque debitas
Deo dicamus gratias.

Alleluia

Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia
