Tristis est anima mea usque ad mortem: 
sustinete hic, et vigilate mecum: 
nunc videbitis turbam, quæ circumdabit me: 
Vos fugam capietis, et ego vadam immolari pro vobis.

Ecce appropinquat hora, et Filius hominis 
tradetur in manus peccatorum.

Composition:

    Set to music by Johann Kuhnau (1660 - 1722), "Tristis est anima mea" [ 2 sopranos, alto, tenor, bass ]
