Text
Vere languores nostros
ipse tulit
et dolores nostros
ipse portavit
cuius livore
sanati sumus
dulce lignum
dulces clavos
dulcia ferens pondera
que sola fuisti digna
sustinere regem
celorum
et dominum.
[NEV]
Translation
Truly He Himself bore our griefs,
and He Himself carried our sorrows;
by His wounds we are healed.
Sweet cross, sweet nails,
sweetly bearing the weight,
you alone were worthy
to bear the King of heaven and the Lord.
