VAGAO:
Umbrae carae, aurae adoratae
Dear shades, beloved zephyrs,
Deh gratae
ah, lull him
Spirate;
with gentle breezes;
Si Dominus dormit
if the Lord sleeps,
Stet tacita gens.
let the people be silent.
A cura tam gravi
His cares are so great:
In somno suavi
in soothing slumber
Sit placida mens.
may his mind be eased.
