Lyrics
English
1.
At the cross her station keeping,
Stood the mournful Mother weeping,
Close to Jesus to the last.
2.
Through her heart, his sorrow sharing,
All his bitter anguish bearing,
Now at length the sword has passed.
3.
O how sad and sore distressed,
Was that Mother highly blest
Of the sole begotten One!
4.
Christ above in torment hangs,
She beneath beholds the pangs
Of her dying, glorious Son.
5.
Is there one who would not weep,
Whelmed in miseries so deep,
Christ’s dear Mother to behold?
6.
Can the human heart refrain
From partaking in her pain,
In that Mother’s pain untold?
7.
Bruised, derided, cursed, defiled,
She beheld her tender Child,
All with bloody scourges rent.
8.
For the sins of his own nation
Saw him hang in desolation
Till his spirit forth he sent.
9.
O thou Mother! Font of love,
Touch my spirit from above,
Make my heart with thine accord.
10.
Make me feel as thou hast felt;
Make my soul to glow and melt
With the love of Christ, my Lord.
11.
Holy Mother, pierce me through,
In my heart each wound renew
Of my Savior crucified.
12.
Let me share with thee his pain,
Who for all my sins was slain,
Who for me in torment died.
13.
Let me mingle tears with thee,
Mourning him who mourned for me,
All the days that I may live.
14.
By the cross with thee to stay;
There with thee to weep and pray,
All I ask of thee to give.
15.
Virgin of all Virgins blest!
Listen to my fond request:
Let me share thy grief divine.
Latin
1.
Stabat Mater dolorósa
Juxta crucem lacrimósa,
Dum pendébat Fílius.
2.
Cuius ánimam geméntem,
Contristátam et doléntem,
Pertransívit gládius.
3.
O quam tristis et afflícta
Fuit illa benedícta
Mater Unigéniti!
4.
Quae maerébat et dolébat,
Pia Mater, dum vidébat
Nati poenas íncliti.
5.
Quis non posset contristári,
Piam Matrem contemplári
Doléntem cum Fílio?
6.
Quis est homo qui non fleret,
Matrem Christi si vidéret
In tanto supplício?
7.
Pro peccátis suae gentis
Vidit Jesum in torméntis,
Et flagéllis súbditum.
8.
Vidit suum dulcem Natum
Moriéntem desolátum,
Dum emísit spíritum.
9.
Eia Mater, fons amóris,
Me sentíre vim dolóris
Fac, ut tecum lúgeam.
10.
Fac ut árdeat cor meum
in amándo Christum Deum,
ut sibi compláceam.
11.
Sancta Mater, istud agas,
Crucifixi fige plagas
Cordi meo válide.
12.
Tui Nati vulneráti,
Tam dignáti pro me pati,
Poenas mecum dívide.
13.
Fac me vere tecum flere,
Crucifixo condolére,
Donec ego víxero.
14.
Juxta crucem tecum stare,
Ac me tibi sociáre
In planctu desídero.
15.
Virgo vírginum praeclára,
Mihi jam non sis amára:
Fac me tecum plángere.
