Ave, ave verum corpus
natum de Maria virgine,
vere passum immolatum
in cruce pro homine.

Cuius latus perforatum
unda fluxit et sanguine,
esto nobis praegustatum
in mortis examine.



Hail, hail true body,
born of the virgin Mary,
truly having suffered sacrifice
on the cross on behalf of man.

Whose pierced side
trickled water and blood
be thou for us a foretaste
in the test of death.
