Sinfonia Nº 8 - Primeiro Movimento
VENI, CREATOR SPIRITUS
Veni, creator spiritus
mentes tuorum visita
imple superna gratia
quae tu creasti pectora
Qui tu Paraclitus diceris
altissimi donum Dei
fons vivus, ignis, caritas
et spiritalis unctio
Infirma nostri corporis
virtute firmans perpeti
accende lumen sensibus
infunde amorem cordibus
Hostem repellas longius
pacemque dones protinus
ductore sic te praevio
vitemus omne pessimum
Tu septiformis munere
digitus paternae dexterae
Per te sciamus da Patrem
noscamus atque Filium
Te utriusque Spiritum
credamus omni tempore
Veni, creator spiritus
Da gaudium praemia
da gratiarum munera
dissolve litis vincula
adstringe pacis foedera
Gloria sit Patri Dominoi
Natoque, qui a mortuis
surrexit, ac Paraclito
in saeculorum saecula
Symphony No. 8 - First Movement
COME, CREATOR SPIRIT
Come, Creator Spirit
visit the minds of your people
fill with heavenly grace
those hearts you have made
You who are called the Paraclete
gift of the Most High God
living fountain, fire, love
and spiritual anointing
Strengthen our weak bodies
with your enduring power
ignite the light in our senses
pour love into our hearts
Drive the enemy far away
and grant us peace right now
with you as our guide
let's avoid all that's evil
You who are sevenfold in gifts
finger of the Father’s right hand
Through you may we know the Father
and know the Son as well
May we believe in the Spirit
of both at all times
Come, Creator Spirit
Give joy and rewards
give gifts of gratitude
loosen the bonds of strife
bind us in peace’s pact
Glory be to the Father, Lord
and to the Son, who rose
from the dead, and to the Paraclete
forever and ever.
