Memorare, Mater Christi,
Perturbata quae fuisti,
Dum per Symeonis dictum
Prescivisti cordis ictum.
Ab Herodem fugiendo,
Tibi, Virgo, condolendo,
Precamur, ut a reatu
Solvamur tuo precatu.
Auxiata plus fuisti,
Filium dum perdidisti,
Lagrimando non cessabas,
Donec Jesum, quem amabas,
Reperisti: supplicamus,
Per te Jesum sic queramus,
Ut in hora mortis dirae
Mereamur invenire.
Rorsum, Virgo, doluisti
Captum natum cum scevisti,
Dumque crucem bajulabat
Et in mortem properabat.
Fac nos crucem venerari,
Ut per eam assignari
Mereamur mortis hora,
Christo regi sine mora.

Cantus firmus:
 Nunca fué pena mayor
 Nin tormento extraño
 Que iguale con el dolor
 Que resçibo engaño.

Composition:

    Set to music by Matthaeus Pipelare (c1450 - 1515), "Memorare, Mater Christi"
