Vere languores
Language: Latin 
Our translations:  FIN
Vere languores nostros ipse tulit,
et dolores nostros ipse portavit.
Cuijus livore sanati sumus.
Dulce lignum, dulces clavos,
dulcia ferens pondera,
quae sola fuisti digna
sustinere regem coelorum et Dominum.

Verily he hath borne our weaknesses
Language: English  after the Latin 
Verily he hath borne our weaknesses,
and he hath taken charge of our sorrows:
we are cleansed by his pallor.
Sweet wood, sweet nails, 
bearing that sweet weight,
you alone were worthy to sustain
the King of Heaven, and our Lord.
