Language: Latin 
Our translations:  DUT ENG FRE
1 Stabat Mater dolorosa
Iuxta crucem lacrimosa
dum pendebat Filius.
 
2. Cuius animam gementem,
contristatam et dolentem,
pertransivit gladius.
 
3. O quam tristis et afflicta
fuit illa benedicta
Mater Unigeniti.
 
4. Quæ mœrebat et dolebat,
Pia Mater cum videbat
Nati pœnas incliti.
 
5. Quis est homo qui non fleret,
Matrem Christi si videret
in tanto supplicio?
 
6. Quis non posset contristari,
Christi Matrem contemplari
dolentem cum Filio?
 
7. Pro peccatis suæ gentis
vidit Iesum in tormentis
et flagellis subditum.
 
8. Vidit suum dulcem natum
moriendo desolatum,
dum emisit spiritum.
 
9. Eia Mater, fons amoris,
me sentire vim doloris
fac, ut tecum lugeam.
 
10. Fac ut ardeat cor meum
in amando Christum Deum,
ut sibi complaceam.
 
11. Sancta Mater, istud agas,
Crucifixi fige plagas
cordi meo valide.
 
12. Tui nati vulnerati,
tam dignati pro me pati,
pœnas mecum divide.
 
13. Fac me vere tecum flere,
Crucifixo condolere,
donec ego vixero.
 
14. Iuxta crucem tecum stare,
et me tibi sociare
in planctu desidero.
 
15. Virgo virginum præclara,
mihi iam non sis amara:
fac me tecum plangere.
 
16. Fac ut portem Christi mortem,
passionis fac consortem,
et plagas recolere.
 
17. Fac me plagis vulnerari,
fac me cruce inebriari,
et cruore Filii.
 
18. Flammis ne urar succensus
per te Virgo, sim defensus
in die judicii.
 
19. Christe, cum sit hinc exire,
da per Matrem me venire
ad palmam victoriae.
 
20. Quando corpus morietur,
fac ut animæ donetur
Paradisi gloria. Amen
