Mozart - Exsultate, Jubilate : K 165 - Cecilia Bartoli

Exult, rejoice,
O you blessed souls,
Rejoice, be glad,
Singing sweet songs;
In response to your singing
Let the heavens sing forth with me.

The friendly day shines forth,
both clouds and storms have fled now;
for the righteous there has arisen an unexpected calm.
Dark night reigned everywhere [before];
you who feared till now,
and joyful for this lucky dawn
give garlands and lilies with full right hand.

You, o crown of virgins,
grant us peace,
console our feelings,
from which our hearts sigh.
Alleluia !
Alleluia !!
Alleluia !!!
