O bone Jesu, fili Mariae virginis plene misericordia et pietate. Jesu, sole serenior et balsamo suavior, omni dulcore dulcior, prae cunctis amabilior. Amabilis Jesu, transfige medulas animae meae suavissimo amoris tui jaculo, perfode meum ignea charitate tua. Jesu summa benignitas, mihi cordis jucunditas, inconprehensa bonitas, tua me stringit caritas. Da mihi, Domine, speciose prae filiis hominum, ut te solum amem, te solum desiderem, per te solum ambulem, ad te solum perveniam, in te solo adquiescam. Jesu, decus angelicum, in aure dulce canticum, in ore mel mirificum, in corde nectar caelium. Oleum effusum, nomen tuum, o Christe, nomen dulce, nomen salutare; adjuva ergo nos et salva nos, quia tu solus es Salvator noster: Lux, via, vita, salus nostra. Redemptor mundi: Caeli cives, occurite, portas vestras attolite, Triumphatori dicite: Ave Jesu, Jesu, Rex inclyte!
