Da pacem, Domine: Difference between revisions

From ChoralWiki

Revision as of 21:34, 26 October 2010

Votive antiphon for peace, drawn from Sir. 36:18. It is also used as the introit for OT 24 with the verse Laetatus sum.

See also Luther's German version, Verleih uns Frieden.

There are also settings by Arnold von Bruck and Gesualdo. The Missa Da pacem attributed to Josquin uses the chant as a cantus firmus. Firminus Caron's contrafactum Da pacem Domine-Accoeuille m’a la belle uses a very loosely related text.

Latin text

Da pacem, Domine, in diebus nostris
Quia non est alius
Qui pugnet pro nobis
Nisi tu Deus noster.

English translation

Give peace, O Lord, in our time
Because there is no one else
Who will fight for us
If not You, our God.

French translation

Donne nous la paix Seigneur en ce jour
Car il n'y a personne d'autre que Toi notre Dieu
Qui combatte pour nous
si ce n'est toi notre Dieu.
