Lyrics[edit]

Laudate Dominum meum
corde voto Deo toto

Psallam Patrem nostrum
quamdiu fuero

Laudate Dominum meum
corde voto Deo toto

Pax in nomine Domini
Dominus tecum

Ecce vos omnes felicis
Coelestia, terrestria
Mundum replens laetitia,
Rex omnipotens

Gloria Patriae et Filio, Da pacem.
Gloria Patriae et Filio, Da pacem.
Sicut erat in principio, et nunc
et semper, et in saecula saeculorum
Magnificat anima mea Pacem.

Unofficial Translation[edit]

The following is an unofficial translation of the lyrics to English:

Praise my Lord
with my whole heart devoted to God

I will celebrate our Father
for as long as I exist (lit. as long as I will have been)

Praise my Lord
with my whole heart devoted to God

Peace in the name of the Lord
The Lord be with you

You, behold all things
celestials of fortune, earthly ones
refilling the world with joy,
The King almighty

Glory to the Father and the Son, Grant peace.
Glory to the Father and the Son, Grant peace.
Just as it was in the beginning, and now
and always, and unto the ages of ages
My spirit extols Peace.

Album Notes[edit]

Album notes written by Yasunori Mitsuda. No official translation exists.

この曲はロンドンフィル録音の為に一番最初に書いた楽 曲で、 今聴くとアレンジが甘いですね。 最初は怖くて怖く てどうしても音数を多く入れてしまいがちだったのです が、生楽器は一つ一つの音に説得力があるので、無理に入 れる必要はないんですよね。
