lirik lagu boston camerata & joel cohen - gabriel's prophecy (oiet, virgines)
the first voice after the processional in the sponsus play is that of the angel gabriel singing oiet, virgines;
gabriel addresses his listeners not in latin but in the vernacular, an early form of provençal. the melodies of the sponsus play are written in heightened neumes, an extremely sketchy form of notation that deals with questions of rhythm and accompaniment not at all, and of pitch only approximately
gabriel’s prophecy, oiet, virgines
franco~provençal, 12th c
oiеt, virgines, aiso que vos dirum!
eiset prеsen que vos comandarum!
atendet sponsum, jesu salvaire
a nom
gaire noi dormet!
aisel espos que vos hor’atendet
venit en terra per los vostres pechet
de la virgine en betleem fo net
e flum jorda lavet e bat~~t
gaire noi dormet!
eu fo batut, gablet e laideniet
sus e la crot pendut e claufiget
eu monument desoentre pauset
gaire no i dormet!
e resors es, la scriptura o dii
gabrïels soi, eu m’a trames aici
atendet lo que ia venra praici
gaire no i dormet!
translation:
hear, you maidens, what i shall tell you
and do at once what i shall command you!
wait for the bridegroom, jesus the saviour by name
do not fall asleep!
the bridegroom whom you await is here!
he came to earth for your sins
was born of the virgin in bethlehem
was washed and baptized in the jordan river
do not fall asleep
he was beaten, mocked, abused
lifted up on the cross and crucified
he was placed in the tomb
do not fall asleep
and he rose — the scripture tells it!
i am gabriel; he sent me here
wait for him; he shall come soon
do not fall asleep
