Panis angelicus 
fit panis hominum; 
Dat panis caelicus 
figuris terminum: 
O res mirabilis! 
manducat Dominum 
Pauper, servus, et humilis. 
Te trina Deitas 
unaque poscimus: 
Sic nos tu visita, 
sicut te colimus; 
Per tuas semitas 
duc nos quo tendimus, 
Ad lucem quam inhabitas. 
Amen.


Bread of Angels, 
made the bread of men; 
The Bread of heaven
puts an end to all symbols:
A thing wonderful!
The Lord becomes our food:
poor, a servant, and humble.
We beseech Thee, 
Godhead One in Three
That Thou wilt visit us,
as we worship Thee,
lead us through Thy ways, 
We who wish to reach the light
in which Thou dwellest.
Amen.
