Ad pedes

Language: Latin

Our translations: FRE

"Ecce super montes pedes evangelizantis
et annuntiantis pacem."¹

Salve mundi salutare,
Salve, salve, Jesu care!
Cruci tuae me aptare
Vellem vere, tu scis quare,
Da mihi tui copiam.

Clavos pedum, plagas duras
Et tam graves impressuras
Circumplector cum affectu,
Tuo pavens in aspectu,
Tuorum memor vulnerum.

Dulcis Jesu, pie Deus,
Ad te clamo, licet reus:
Praebe mihi te benignum,
Ne repellas me indignum
De tuis sanctis pedibus.

"Ecce super montes pedes evangelizantis
et annuntiantis pacem."

Aux pieds

Language: French (Français) after the Latin

Voici sur les montagnes les pieds de celui qui porte la bonne nouvelle
et annonce la paix.

Salut au sauveur du monde,
Salut cher Jésus !
Sur ta croix je voudrais être attaché
Vraiment, tu sais pourquoi,
Donne-moi ta force.

Les clous dans tes pieds, les coups sévères,
Et les marques si graves
Je les embrasse avec amour,
Troublé à ta vue,
Me souvenant de tes blessures.

[...

Voici sur les montagnes les pieds de celui qui porte la bonne nouvelle
et annonce la paix.
