German (with a smattering of Latin and Greek):
In dulci jubilo singet und seid froh!
Unsers Herzens Wonne liegt in praesepio,
leuchtet als die Sonne Matris in gremio.
Alpha es et O. Alpha es et O.

In dulci jubilo Your praises hereby show,
He our hearts sweet treasure lies in praesepio,
Is come to do God's pleasure Matris in gremio
Alpha es et O. Alpha es et O.
