Illuminare, Jerusalem,
The Duke appeareth in Bethlem.
The Duke appeareth in Bethlem.

His signë is a star bright,That shineth over him with light;
It is nought come but of his might:
Illuminare, Jerusalem.

This day three kings made oblation:He gi'th to water sanctification;
By baptism our renovation:
Illuminare, Jerusalem.

The Holy Ghost o'er him alight,The Father's voice was heard on height:
This is my Son, me please him right:
Illuminare, Jerusalem.
