+++

Mozarabic Chant - Dum Pater Familias.
Canción en loor de Santiago de Compostela


+++

Latin:

Dum pater familias
Rex universorum
Donaret provincias
Ius apostolorum
Jacobus Yspanias
Lux illustrat morum.


Primus ex apostolis
Martir Jerosolimis
Jacobus egregio
Sacer est martyrio


Jacobi Gallecia
Opem rogat piam
Plebe cuius gloria
Dat insignem viam
Ut precum frequentia
Cantet melodiam:


"Herru Sanctiagu
Grot Sanctiagu
E ultreya e suseya
Deus aia nos"


Primus ex apostolis . . .


Jacobo dat parium
Omnis mundus gratis
Ob cuius remedium
Miles pietatis
Cunctorum presidium
Est ad vota satis.


Primus ex apostolis . . .


Jacobum miraculis
Que fiunt per illum
Arctis in periculis
Acclamet ad illum
Quiquis solvi vinculis
Sperat propter illum.


Primus ex apostolis . . .


O beate Jacobe
Virtus nostra vere
Nobis hostes remove
Tuos ac tuere
Ac devotos adibe
Nos tibi placere.


Primus ex apostolis . . .


Jacobe propicio
Veniam speremus
Et quas ex obsequio
Merito debemus
Patri tam eximio
Dignas laudes demus.


Primus ex apolstolis . . .
