Ave Verum Corpus


Ave Verum Corpus natum
de Maria Virgine
Vere passum immolatum
in cruce pro homine:
cuius latum perforatum
aqua fluxit et sanguine
Esto nobis praegustatum
in mortis examine

(Translation)
Hail, true Body, truly born
of the Virgin Mary mild
Truly offered, wracked and torn,
on the Cross for all defiled,
from Whose love-pierced, sacred side
flowed Thy true Blood's saving tide:
be a foretaste sweet to me
in my death's great agony
