Latin lyrics
Ait Latro ad latronem:
Nos quidem digna factis recipimus:
Hic autem quit fecit?
Memento mei, Domine,
Dum veneris in regnum tuum.
Benedicisti, Domine, terram tuam:
Avertisti captivitatem Jacob.
Remisisti iniquitatem plebis tuae:
Operuisti omnia peccata eorum.
Ait Latro ad latronem:
Nos quidem digna factis recipimus:
Hic autem quit fecit?
Memento mei, Domine,
Dum veneris in regnum tuum.
English translation
The thief said to the thief:
We, indeed, receive the due reward of our deeds;
But what has this man done?
Remember me, O Lord, when Thou shalt come into thy kingdom.
Thou has blessed thy land, O Lord:
Thou hast turned away the captivity of Jacob.
Thou has forgiven the iniquity of they people:
Thou has covered all their sins.
The thief said to the thief:
We, indeed, receive the due reward of our deeds;
But what has this man done?
Remember me, O Lord,
When Thou shalt come into thy kingdom.
