Francisco Guerrero

Rorate coeli desuper
et nubes pluant justum.
Aperiatur terra,
et germinet Salvatorem:


Ostende nobis Domine
misericordiam tuam
Et salutare tuum da nobis:
Veni Domine et noli tardare.

Let the heavens drop dew from above,
and the clouds rain down justice.
May the earth open
and generate a Savior:

Reveal to us, Lord,
your mercy,
and give your salvation to us:
Come, Lord, and do not delay.
