Panis angelicus (Aquinas, set by C. Franck, J. Rebelo, H. Villa-Lobos) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Panis angelicus, fit panis hominum.
Dat panis coelicus, figuris terminum.
O res mirabilis, manducat Dominum
Pauper et servus et humilis.

Te trina Deitas, unaque, poscimus,
Sic nos tu visita sicut te colimus;
Per tuas semitas duc nos quo tendimus,
Ad lucem quam inhabitas. Amen.
