I was (and still am) still looking for a version of this tune played by the Northumbrian pipes. For some reason, I just think this is a quintessentially Northumbrian tune.
Hi Janice, I wonder if you 'll read this! We met a couple of times during the eighties.We were both interested in forming a band (you friend Sue, a drummer, was with you). Anyway, above all, I wish you that you stay well and healthy! And Rock On!
Veni, veni Emmanuel! Captivum solve Israel! Qui gemit in exilio, Privatus Dei Filio, Gaude, gaude, Emmanuel nascetur pro te, Israel. Veni o Jesse virgula! Ex hostis tuos ungula, De specu tuos tartari Educ, et antro barathri. Gaude, gaude, Emmanuel nascetur pro te, Israel. Veni, veni o oriens! Solare nos adveniens, Noctis depelle nebulas, Dirasque noctis tenebras. Gaude, gaude, Emmanuel nascetur pro te, Israel. Veni clavis Davidica! Regna reclude coelica, Fac iter Tutum superum, Et claude vias Inferum. Gaude, gaude, Emmanuel nascetur pro te, Israel. Veni, veni Adonai! Qui populo in Sinai Legem dedisti vertice, In maiestate gloriae. Gaude, gaude, Emmanuel nascetur pro te, Israel.
