Himno Veni Creator Spiritus en canto gregoriano / Doble versión.
Veni Creator Spiritus es, dentro del marco de la Iglesia católica, un texto que invoca la presencia del Espíritu Santo. Fue escrito y es rezado o cantado en latín. Se utiliza en la liturgia católica. Se suele cantar al comienzo de solemnes actos académicos en las universidades. Esto es un vestigio del origen eclesiástico de la institución universitaria. El texto procede del siglo IX y se suele atribuir a Rábano Mauro.
Ha sido musicalizado para el canto gregoriano. Es una melodía monofónica a capella, o sea, sin acompañamiento instrumental. Lo canta un coro de voces masculinas al unísono. En cuanto a su forma musical, es estrófica, se repite en cada estrofa la misma música con diferente letra. Algunos compositores lo han utilizado. La versión más famosa se encuentra en la 8ª Sinfonía de Gustav Mahler, que lo utiliza en la primera parte. Su melodía se mueve por grados conjuntos.
Latín
Veni Creator Spiritus,
Mentes tuorum visita,
Imple superna gratia,
Quae tu creasti, pectora.
Qui diceris Paraclitus,
Donum Dei Altissimi,
Fons vivus, ignis, caritas,
Et spiritalis unctio.
Tu septiformis munere,
Dextrae Dei tu digitus,
Tu rite promissum Patris,
Sermone ditans guttura.
Accende lumen sensibus,
Infunde amorem cordibus,
Infirma nostri corporis,
Virtute firmans perpeti.
Hostem repellas longius,
Pacemque dones protinus;
Ductore sic te praevio,
Vitemus omne noxium.
Per te sciamus da Patrem
Noscamus atque Filium;
Teque utriusque Spiritum
Credamus omni tempore.
Deo Patri sit gloria,
Et Filio, qui a mortuis
Surrexit, ac Paraclito
In saeculorum saecula.
Amen.
V. Emitte Spiritum tuum, et creabuntur: R. Et renovabis faciem terrae.
Oremus: Deus qui corda fidelium Sancti Spiritus illustratione docuisti: da nobis in eodem Spiritu recta sapere, et de eius semper consolatione gaudere. Per Dominum nostrum Jesum Christum, Filium tuum, qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitate eiusdem Spiritus Sancti Deus. Per omnia saecula saeculorum. Amen.
Castellano
Ven Espíritu Creador;
visita las almas de tus fieles.
Llena de la divina gracia los corazones
que Tú mismo has creado.
Tú eres nuestro consuelo,
don de Dios altísimo,
fuente viva, fuego, caridad
y espiritual unción.
Tú derramas sobre nosotros los siete dones;
Tú el dedo de la mano de Dios,
Tú el prometido del Padre,
pones en nuestros labios los tesoros de tu palabra.
Enciende con tu luz nuestros sentidos,
infunde tu amor en nuestros corazones
y con tu perpetuo auxilio,
fortalece nuestra frágil carne.
Aleja de nosotros al enemigo,
danos pronto tu paz,
siendo Tú mismo nuestro guía
evitaremos todo lo que es nocivo.
Por Ti conozcamos al Padre
y también al Hijo y que en Ti,
que eres el Espíritu de ambos,
creamos en todo tiempo.
Gloria a Dios Padre
y al Hijo que resucitó de entre los muertos,
y al Espíritu Consolador, por los siglos de los siglos.
Amén.
Veni Creator Spiritus ("Come Creator Spirit") is a hymn believed to have been written by Rabanus Maurus in the 9th century. When the original Latin text is used, it is normally sung in Gregorian Chant. As an invocation of the Holy Spirit, in the practice of the Roman Catholic Church it is sung during the liturgical celebration of the feast of Pentecost (at both Terce and Vespers). It is also sung at occasions such as the entrance of Cardinals to the Sistine Chapel, when electing a new pope, as well as at the consecration of bishops, the ordination of priests, when celebrating the sacrament of Confirmation, the dedication of churches, the celebration of synods or councils, the coronation of kings, the profession of members of religious institutes and other similar solemn events.
The hymn is also widely used in the Anglican Communion and appears, for example, in the Ordering of Priests and in the Consecration of Bishops in the Book of Common Prayer, 1662. It has been translated into several languages; one English example is Creator Spirit! by whose aid, written 1690 by John Dryden and published in The Church Hymn book 1872 (n. 313). Martin Luther used it as the basis for his chorale for Pentecost "Komm, Gott Schöpfer, Heiliger Geist" composed in 1524.
Gustav Mahler set the Latin text to music in Part I of his Symphony No. 8 in E-flat major. The text has been set for chorus and orchestra by Cristóbal Halffter. A motet for women's voices to the text was among the last works of Hector Berlioz. Krzysztof Penderecki wrote a motet for mixed choir, and Paul Hindemith concludes his Concerto for Organ and Orchestra with a Phantasy on "Veni Creator Spiritus." Maurice Duruflé used the chant tune as the basis for his symphonic organ composition "Prélude, Adagio et Choral varié sur le thème du 'Veni Creator'" in 1930. Michael John Trotta's setting incorporates the first two lines of this hymn along with the text from Veni Sancte Spiritus in a 21st-century setting for choir.
English version
(this is a poem and not a precise literal translation of the Latin)
Come, Holy Ghost, Creator blest,
and in our hearts take up Thy rest;
come with Thy grace and heav'nly aid,
To fill the hearts which Thou hast made.
O Comforter, to Thee we cry,
Thou heav'nly gift of God most high,
Thou Fount of life, and Fire of love,
and sweet anointing from above.
O Finger of the hand divine,
the sevenfold gifts of grace are thine;
true promise of the Father thou,
who dost the tongue with power endow.
Thy light to every sense impart,
and shed thy love in every heart;
thine own unfailing might supply
to strengthen our infirmity.
Drive far away our ghostly foe,
and thine abiding peace bestow;
if thou be our preventing Guide,
no evil can our steps betide.
Praise we the Father and the Son
and Holy Spirit with them One;
and may the Son on us bestow
the gifts that from the Spirit flow.
