O Shining Light


Written Text

O Shining Light
O shining light of the stars,
O most splendid, precious radiance of a royal wedding,
O glowing jewel!
You are arrayed as a high lady
Without spot or wrinkle.
You are a companion of the angels,
And you dwell in the city of the saints.
Run away, run away from the cave of the ancient tempter.
And come, come to the palace of the King.



O Coruscans Lux
0 coruscans lux stellarum,
o splendidissima specialis forma regalium nuptiarum,
o fulgens gemma,
tu es ornata in alta persona,
quae non habet maculatam rugam.
Tu es etiam socia Angelorum
et civis sanctorum.
Fuge, fuge speluncam antiqui perditoris,
et veniens veni in palatium Regis.
