Lyrics Ave verum

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.
O Iesu dulcis, O Iesu pie,
O Iesu, fili Mariae,
Miserere, miserere, miserere mei.

Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen.
