    Jesu, decus angélicum,
    In aure dulce cánticum,
    In ore mel miríficum,
    In corde nectar cǽlicum.

    Qui te gustant, esúriunt;
    Qui bibunt, adhuc sítiunt;
    Desideráre nésciunt,
    Nisi Jesum, quem díligunt.

    O Jesu mi dulcíssime,
    Spes suspirántis ánimæ!
    Te quærunt piæ lácrimæ,
    Te clamor mentis íntimæ.

    Mane nobíscum, Dómine,
    Et nos illústra lúmine;
    Pulsa mentis calígine,
    Mundum reple dulcédine.

    Jesu, flos Matris Vírginis,
    Amor nostræ dulcédinis,
    Tibi laus, honor nóminis,
    Regnum beatitúdinis.
    Amen.

    O Jesu, thou the beauty art
    Of angel worlds above;
    Thy Name is music to the heart,
    Enchanting it with love.

    Celestial sweetness unalloyed,
    Who eat thee hunger still;
    Who drink of thee still feel a void,
    Which naught but thou canst fill.

    O my sweet Jesu, hear the sigh
    Which unto thee I send;
    To thee mine inmost spirit cries,
    My being's hope and end.

    Stay with us, Lord, and with thy light
    Illume the soul's abyss;
    Scatter the darkness of our night,
    And fill the world with bliss.

    O Jesu, spotless Virgin's flower,
    Our life and joy art thou;
    To thee be praise, and might, and power,
    Through all eternity.
    Amen.
