Ave verum Corpus natum de Maria Virgine:
Vere passum, immolatum in Cruce pro homine.

Cuius latus perforatum fluxit aqua et sanguine:
Esto nobis praegustatum mortis in examine.

O Iesu dulcis! O Iesu pie! O Iesu fili Mariae.


Translation:

   Hail, true body, born of the Virgin Mary:
   Truly suffered, died on the cross for mankind:


From who pierced side flowed water and blood!
Be for us a foretaste of death in the last hour!

O gentle Jesus! O holy Jesus! O Jesus, Son of Mary!
