Lassus: Surrexit pastor bonus
Orlando de Lassus
Surrexit pastor bonus,
qui animam suam posuit pro ovibus suis,
et pro grege suo mori dignatus est, alleluia.
The Good Shepherd has arisen,
who laid down his life for his sheep,
and deigned to die for his flock, alleluia.
(Matins Responsory, Easter Monday; cf. John 10:11)
