Diction:
Remember that we're using Ecclesiastical Latin. You've all sung enough
latin to know how it goes. Just remember:
cruce - crooCH-ay
cujus - coo - yoos
virgine - soft G, virjine
fluxit - floo kseet
praegustatum - hard G, praeGustatum
Translation:
|
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 the true body, born
of the Virgin Mary:
You who truly suffered and were sacrificed
on the cross for the sake of man.
From whose pierced flank
flowed water and blood:
Be a foretaste for us
in the trial of death. |
Choristers
have practiced here.
