Colin Mawby: Ave verum corpus

Ave verum corpus natum de Maria Virgine:              
Vere passum immolatum in cruce pro homine:   
Cujus latus perforatum fluxit aqua et sanguine:   
Esto nobis praegustatum mortis in examine.   
O Jesu dulcis! O Jesu pie!  O Jesu, Fili Mariae.   

Hail true body born of the Virgin Mary:
Which truly suffered and was sacrificed on the cross for humankind:
From whose pierced side flowed water and blood:
Grant that we may taste you at the hour of our death.
O sweet Jesus! O blessed Jesus! O Jesus, Son of Mary.
