¶Lyrics / Text

Propter gravamen et tormentum, quo torquebatur Spiritus tuus et cor tuum, virgo Maria, Quando filium tuum prae doloribus Voce magna clamantem, Te matrem dulcissimam Ioanni commendantem Et in manu Patris commendato Spiritum deficientem attendebas. Succurre nobis peccatoribus Quando linguæ nostræ non poterunt Amplius nominare, Oculi obscurabuntur, Aures surdescent Omnes que vires et sensus Anime deficient. Memento nostri, piissima mater misericordiæ, Quod nunc perfugimus ad aures tuæ pietatis. Et subveni in hora ultima Et extreme, necessitatis, Per quem a cunctis terroribus eruamur Et ad celestis patriæ requiem Ipso tecum duce pervenire mereamur. Amen
