Work introduction
Translated as Hail, Hoy Body, Ave Verum Corpus is ais a short Eucharistic chant that has been set to music by many composers. including Mozart, William Byrd & Edward Elgar. In truth, not all composers use the complete text. In this composition, the composer is based on the text by Mozart's Ave Verum Corpus. The score is in sounding pitch.
The original verse should be as follows:
Ave verum corpus, natum
de Maria Virgine,
vere passum, immolatum
in cruce pro homine
cuius latus perforatum
fluxit aqua et sanguine:
esto nobis prægustatum
in mortis examine.
O Iesu dulcis, O Iesu pie,
O Iesu, fili Mariae.
Miserere mei. Amen.
Translated in English:
Hail, true Body, born
of the Virgin Mary,
having truly suffered, sacrificed
on the cross for mankind,
from whose pierced side
water and blood flowed:
Be for us a foretaste [of the Heavenly banquet]
in the trial of death!
O sweet Jesus, O holy Jesus,
O Jesus, son of Mary,
have mercy on me. Amen.
