Vivaldi

O qui coeli terraeque serenitas

1. Aria.
O qui coeli terraeque serenitas
et fons lucis et arbiter es,
Unde regis aeterna tua sidera
mitis considera
nostra vota, clamores et spes.

2. Recitativo.
Fac ut sordescat tellus
dum respicimus coelum;
fac ut bona superna
constanter diligamus
et sperantes aeterna.
Quidquid caducum
est odio habeamus.

3. Aria.
Rosa quae moritur,
unda quae labitur,
mundi delicias
docent fugaces.
Vix fronte amabili
mulcent cum labili
pede praetervolant
larvae fallaces.

4. Alleluia.
1. Aria
O whoever is the serenity of heaven and earth,
you are the source of light and judgment.
Wherever you rule eternally, your stars
mercifully consider
our wishes, cries, and hopes.

2. Recitativo.
Make the earth seem worthless
when we look at heaven;
Make us the celestial as good
firmly hold
and eternally fear.
Let us hate that
which will likely fail.

3. Aria.
The rose that dies,
the wave that breaks,
worldly delights,
They teach of the transient:
With just an amiable face,
they pacify, flying past
on unfounded foot,
deceptive demons.

4. Alleluia.
