Wish I could hear this done by the Dale Warland Singers! Lovely setting, Mr. Arnesen! And I wish I had a choir of the caliber of the Kansas City Kantorei at my disposal!
Dormi, Jesu! Mater ridet Quae tam dulcem somnum videt, Dormi, Jesu! blandule! Si non dormis, Mater plorat, Inter fila cantans orat, Blande, veni, somnule. Sleep, Jesus! Mother smiles Who sees such sweet sleep, Sleep, Jesus, gentling! If you sleep not, Mother weeps, While she spins, in song she prays, Come, gentle little sleep.
Thank you for the lyrics and translation. In HS, I took 4 yrs of Latin and sang 2nd soprano in choir. I just turned 54. I still remember learning this beautiful song and performing at our school's Christmas concert.
This song for me represents the adage "This too will pass"when it comes to the stressors of life. It enables me to endure the most trying of times.
Fabuleux sujet. Fabuleuse musique
Maestro Arensen, once again, writes music this is a sheer delight to the ears!
Peaceful, restful, moving,heavenly angelic, warm, delicate.
Maestro Arensen, your music is heart-breakingly beautiful!
Hey, that's us!
Yes, and that's beautiful singing 👍🥰
One of my favorite songs to perform.

Thanks!
It's heavenly music that gives a complex mind peace and comfort. It's like a chorus of angels, not music.
My Goodness! This is Heaven on Earth. Meu Deus! É o céu na terra.
É verdade.
Dormi, Jesu! Mater ridet
Quae tam dulcem somnum videt,
Dormi, Jesu! blandule!
Si non dormis, Mater plorat,
Inter fila cantans orat,
Blande, veni, somnule.
Sleep, Jesus! Mother smiles
Who sees such sweet sleep,
Sleep, Jesus, gentling!
If you sleep not, Mother weeps,
While she spins, in song she prays,
Come, gentle little sleep.
