Lyrics
Ave, ave verum corpus
natum de Maria Virgine,
Vere passum immolatum
in Cruce pro homine,
Cujus latus perforatum
unda* fluxit (et)* sanguine,
Esto nobis praegustatum
in mortis examine.
Translation:
Hail, true body
born of the Virgin Mary,
Who truly suffered,
sacrificed on the Cross for man,
Whose pierced side overflowed with water* and blood,
Be for us a foretaste** In the test of death.
