PANGE LINGUA


Duración 6:22 minutos



Pange, lingua, gloriosi 
Corporis mysterium, 
Sanguinisque pretiosi, 
quem in mundi pretium 
fructus ventris generosi 
Rex effudit Gentium. 

 Nobis datus, nobis natus
 ex intacta Virgine,
 et in mundo conversatus, 
sparso verbi semine, 
sui moras incolatus 
miro clausit ordine. 

 In supremae nocte coenae 
recumbens cum fratribus 
observata lege plene
 cibis in legalibus, 
cibum turbae duodenae 
se dat suis manibus. 

 Verbum caro, panem verum 
verbo carnem efficit: 
fitque sanguis Christi merum, 
et si sensus deficit, 
ad firmandum cor sincerum 
sola fides sufficit. 

 Tantum ergo Sacramentum 
veneremur cernui: 
et antiquum documentum 
novo cedat ritui: 
praestet fides supplementum 
sensuum defectui. 

Genitori, Genitoque 
laus et jubilatio, 
salus, honor, virtus quoque 
sit et benedictio: 
Procedenti ab utroque 
compar sit laudatio. Amen. 

 Sing, my tongue, the Savior's glory,
 of His flesh the mystery sing; 
of the Blood, all price exceeding,
shed by our immortal King, 
destined, for the world's redemption, 
from a noble womb to spring.

 Of a pure and spotless Virgin
 born for us on earth below, 
He, as Man, with man conversing, 
stayed, the seeds of truth to sow; 
then He closed in solemn order 
wondrously His life of woe. 

 On the night of that Last Supper, 
seated with His chosen band, 
He the Pascal victim eating,
 first fulfills the Law's command; 
then as Food to His Apostles
 gives Himself with His own hand. 

 Word-made-Flesh, the bread of nature 
by His word to Flesh He turns; 
wine into His Blood He changes; 
what though sense no change discerns? 
Only be the heart in earnest,
 faith her lesson quickly learns. 

 Down in adoration falling, 
This great Sacrament we hail, 
Over ancient forms of worship 
Newer rites of grace prevail; 
Faith will tell us Christ is present,
 When our human senses fail. 

To the everlasting Father, 
And the Son who made us free
 And the Spirit, God proceeding
 From them Each eternally, 
Be salvation, honor, blessing, 
Might and endless majesty. 
Amen.
