Revels Recordings
Galicia 2017

From Sharon:

Here's a link to the rest of the MP3s that I'm using. Anyone who has the link can see and listen to them so feel free to fwd to anyone. They're not perfect - some have different words or different solos, but they are really helping me because I can listen on the bus. :D

Mariam Matrem is particularly helpful because there's a Cello (viola?) playing the harmony part that we hum. Love it!

from the Codex Calixtinus

Dum pater familias
rex universorum
donaret provincias
jus apostolorum
Jacobus Yspanias
lux illustrat morum.
Primus ex apostolis
martir Jerosolimis
Jocobus egregio
sacer est martyrio.
Jacobi Gallecia
opem rogat piam
Plebe cujus gloria
dat insignem viam
Ut precum frequentia
cantet melodiam
Herru Sanctiagu,
GrotSanctiagu
eultreya
esuseya
Deus a nos

When God the Father,
King of the world,
apportioned his provinces
among the apostles,
He assigned James
to show the light to Spain.
First [to be martyred] amongst Apostles now!
Martyred at Jerusalem!
James became the holiest
by illustrious martyrdom!
Lo! James’s Galicia calls out for our pious toil,
Marching on the holy way, road over her glorious soil.
Blending all our prayers in one harmony of endless song:
To Lord St James! To God’s St James!
And Onward! And Upward! God speed our way!

Portum in ultimo
Portum in ultimo
da nobis iudicio.
Ita ut cum deo
carenti principio,
et cum eius nato,
qui est sine termino.
et cum paraclito
ab utroque edito,
expulsi a tetro
tartareo puteo,
angelorum choro
coniuncti sanctissimo,
purgati vicio,
potiti gaudio
cum vite premio,
te duce patrono,
intremus cum pio
paradisi voto.

Give us refuge
at the last judgment.
Thus, with the God
without beginning,
and his son
who is without end,
and with the holy spirit
proceeding from them,
pulled from the foul
infernal pit,
joined with the most holy
chorus of angels,
purged of vice
able to rejoice
with the prize of life,
lead us, patron saint,
that we may prayerfully
enter paradise.

from the LLibre Vermell

Mariam, Matrem Virgine

Mariam Matrem Virginem
attollite
Ihesum Christum extollite
concorditer.

Maria seculi asilum
defende nos.
Ihesu totum refugium
exaudi nos.
Iam estis nos totaliter
diffugium
totum mundi confugium
realiter.

Ihesu suprema bonitas
verissima.
Maria dulcis pietas
gratissima.
Amplissima conformiter
sit caritas
Ad nos quos pellit vanitas
enormiter.

Maria virgo humilis,
te colimus,
Ihesu desiderabilis,
te querimus,
Et volumus mentaliter
in superis
Frui cum sanctis angelis
perenniter.

Ihesu, pro peccatoribus
qui passus es,
Maria, sta pro omnibus,
quae mater es,
Nam omnes nos labiliter
subsistimus,
Iuvari unde petimus
flebiliter.

Maria facta saeculis
salvatio.
Ihesu dam[p]nati hominis
redemptio.
Pugnare quam viriliter
pro famulis
Percussis duris jaculis
atrociter.

Mary, the Virgin Mother,
exalt her,
and extol Jesus Christ,
concordantly.

Mary, asylum for the world,
defend us.
Jesus, total refuge,
hear us.
You are, while we are totally
dispersed,
a complete safe haven from the world truly.

Jesus, supreme goodness,
Full of truth,
Mary, sweet mercy
Full of grace,
May similarly superabound
Your love
Towards us who the vanity of life strikes enormously

Mary, humble virgin,
we honour you.
Desirable Jesus,
we long for you.
And mentally we want
in heaven
to delight with the holy angels
eternally

Jesus, who for sinners,
Did suffer,
Mary, stand for [us] all
as you are a mother,
Because insecure is our
existence
therefore we beg for help,
weeping.

Mary, used to procure for generations
Salvation.
Jesus, for damned mankind
redemption.
Fight as ardently
for your servants,
as they are being struck hard
atrociously

Cuncti Simus

Cuncti simus concanentes : Ave Maria.

Virgo sola existente en affuit angelus,
Gabriel est appellatus atque missus celitus
Clara facieque dixit : Ave Maria.

Clara facieque dixit : audite karissimi.
En concipies Maria, Ave Maria.

En concipies Maria : audite karissimi.
Pariesque Filium : Ave Maria.

Pariesque Filium : audite karissimi.
Vocabis eum Jhesum : Ave Maria.

Let us all sing together: Hail Mary.

When the Virgin was alone, lo, an angel appeared,
Gabriel was his name and he was sent from Heaven.
With a shining face he said: Hail Mary.

With a shining face he said (listen my dear ones):
You will conceive, Mary.

You will bear a son.

You will call him Jesus.

Stella Splendens

Stella splendens in monte ut solis radium miraculis serrato, exaudi populum.

Concurrunt unvisersi gaudentes populi,
divites et egeni, grandes et parvuli,
ipsum ingregiuntur, ut cernunt oculi,
et inde revertuntur gracijs repleti.

Principes et magnates ex stirpe regia,
saeculi potestates optenta venia
peccaminum proclamant tundentes pectora.
Poplite flexo clamant hic : Ave Maria.

Prelati et barones, comites incliti,
religiosi omnes atque presbyteri,
milites, mercatores, cives, marinari
burgenses, piscatores praemiantur ibi.

Cuncti ergo precantes sexus utriusque,
mentes nostras mundantes oremus devote
virginem gloriosam, matrem clementiae,
in coelis gratiosam sentiamus vere.

Splendid star on the serrated mountain, with miracles shining like a sunbeam, hear the people.

From all around they rally, rejoicing,
rich and poor, young and old,
they assemble here to see with their own eyes,
and return from it filled with grace.

Rulers and magnates of royal stripes,
the mighty of the world, having obtained indulgence
for their sin, they cry out and beating their breast
they kneel and cry here: Ave Maria.

Prelates and barons, famous counts, all kinds of monks and priests, soldiers, merchants, citizens, sailors, burgers and fishermen are recompensed here.

Therefore, everybody, male and female, beseeching and cleansings ourd minds, let us devoutly pray that we may really experience that the glorious virgin,
the clement mother, is gracious (full of grace) in heaven.
