Attende Domine, et miserere, quia peccavimus tibi.
Innocens captus, nec repugnans ductus; testibus falsis pro impiis damnatus quos redemisti, tu conserva, Christe.
Attende Domine, et miserere, quia peccavimus tibi.
The English translation:
Hear us, O Lord, and have mercy, because we have sinned against Thee.
To Thee, highest King, Redeemer of all,
do we lift up our eyes in weeping:
Hear, O Christ, the prayers of your servants.
Hear us, O Lord, and have mercy, because we have sinned against Thee.
Right hand of the Father, corner-stone,
way of salvation, gate of heaven,
wash away our stains of sin.
Hear us, O Lord, and have mercy, because we have sinned against Thee.
We beseech Thee, God, in Thy great majesty:
Hear our groans with Thy holy ears:
calmly forgive our crimes.
Hear us, O Lord, and have mercy, because we have sinned against Thee.
To Thee we confess our sins admitted with a contrite heart
We reveal the things hidden:
By Thy kindness, O Redeemer, overlook them.
Hear us, O Lord, and have mercy, because we have sinned against Thee.
The Innocent, seized, not refusing to be led;
condemned by false witnesses
because of impious men,
O Christ, keep safe those whom Thou hast redeemed.
Hear us, O Lord, and have mercy, because we have sinned against Thee.
