⁣The Exsultet is the beautiful chant sung by the deacon at the Easter Vigil on Holy Saturday. After having blessed the fire and lighted the triple candle outside, the clergy and faithful process into the church, all in darkness, where the paschal candle is lit. Then, the Exsultet is sung... by candle light. Granted, there would not be any harmonic drones like in this recording; I have added that simply for esthetics since it is a recording, not the actual liturgy. Traditionally, prior to the liturgical changes of 1955, the mass of Holy Saturday (aka Easter Vigil) was not celebrated at night, but in the morning (just like the Vigil masses of Pentecost, Christmas and Assumption) as it is the mass of Holy Saturday, NOT the first mass of Easter Sunday. It is a mass in anticipation of the Resurrection. Therefore, in order to make the church dark, the windows, like the statues and sacred images, were also veiled. After the Exsultet was finished, the veils on the windows were removed, letting the light pour in and fill the church.

English translation:
"Let the angelic choirs of Heaven now rejoice; let the divine Mysteries rejoice; and let the trumpet of salvation sound forth the victory of so great a King. Let the earth also rejoice, made radiant by such splendor; and, enlightened with the brightness of the eternal King, let it know that the darkness of the whole world is scattered. Let our mother the Church also rejoice, adorned with the brightness of so great a light; and let this temple resound with the loud acclamations of the people. Wherefore I beseech you, most beloved brethren, who are here present in the wondrous brightness of this holy light, to invoke with me the mercy of almighty God. That He who has vouchsafed to admit me among the Levites, without any merits of mine, would pour forth the brightness of His light upon me, and enable me to perfect the praise of this wax candle. Through our Lord Jesus Christ His Son, Who with Him and the Holy Ghost liveth and reigneth one God for ever and ever. R. Amen."

Adeste fideles
laeti triumphantes,
Venite, venite
in Bethlehem.
Natum videte
Regem angelorum.
Venite adoremus
Dominum.



Acudid, fieles, alegres, triunfantes; venid, venid a Belén, ved al nacido Rey de los ángeles.
Venid adoremos, venid adoremos,venid adoremos al Señor.
He aquí que dejado el rebaño,los pastores llamados se acercan a la humilde cuna y nosotros nos apresuramos con paso alegre.
Venid adoremos, venid adoremos, venid adoremos al Señor.
El esplendor eterno del Padre Eternolo veremos oculto bajo la carne
Al Dios Niño envuelto en pañales Venid adoremos, venid adoremos, venid adoremos al Señor.
