Tantum ergo Sacramentum
Veneremur cernui:
Et antiquum documentum
Novo cedat ritui:
Praestet fides supplementum
Sensuum defectui.
Genitori, Genitoque
Laus et iubilatio,
Salus, honor, virtus quoque
Sit et benedictio:
Procedenti ab utroque
Compar sit laudatio. Amen.

A tal sacramento, por lo tanto,
postrados veneremos,
y el antiguo testamento
al nuevo rito dé lugar.
Supla la fe lo que falta
a la incapacidad de los sentidos.
Al Padre y al Hijo
se den la alabanza, la gloria,
la salud, el honor, la fuerza
y la bendición,
y al que de ambos procede
sea idéntica alabanza. Amén.
