Text and translations
Latin text
Videntes stellam magi gavisi sunt gaudio magno:
et intrantes domum,
invenerunt puerum, cum Maria, matre eius,
et procidentes adoraverunt eum.
Et apertis thesauris suis,
obtulerunt ei munera: aurum, thus et myrrham.
Gloria Patri et Filio et Spiritui Sancto.
Sicut erat in principio, et nunc et semper et in saecula saeculorum. Amen.

English translation
Seeing the star, the magi rejoiced with great joy;
and entering the house,
they found the boy, with Mary, His mother,
and fell down and worshiped Him.
And [when they had] opened their treasures,
they offered Him gifts: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
Glory be to the Father and Son and Holy Ghost,
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, World without end. Amen.
