This Ambrosian (or Milanese) chant song borrows from psalm 131(132). Ambrosian chant is from the Ambrosian rite of the Roman church in the Catholic Church. This is my first video of Ambrosian chant. It reminds one of Byzantine chant; its almost like east meets west; Greek style with Latin lyrics. The Latin lyrics and English translation follow:
Paravi lucernam christo meo.
Inimicos ejus induam confusione; super ipsum autem efflorebit sanctificatio mea.
Memento, Domine, David, et omnis mansuetudinis ejus.
Super ipsum autem efflorebit sanctificatio mea.
I have prepared a lamp for my anointed.
His enemies I will clothe with confusion: but upon him shall my sanctification flourish.
Lord, remember David, and all his meekness.
But upon him shall my sanctification flourish.
Paravi lucernam christo meo.
Inimicos ejus induam confusione; super ipsum autem efflorebit sanctificatio mea.
Memento, Domine, David, et omnis mansuetudinis ejus.
Super ipsum autem efflorebit sanctificatio mea.
I have prepared a lamp for my anointed.
His enemies I will clothe with confusion: but upon him shall my sanctification flourish.
Lord, remember David, and all his meekness.
But upon him shall my sanctification flourish.
