O vos omnes, qui transitis per viam,
attendite, et videte dolorem meum,
si est dolor similis sicut dolor meus,
attendite universi populi, et videte dolorem meum.

O all you who pass by the way,
pay attention and see my sorrow,
if there is any sorrow like my sorrow.
Pay attention, all you people, and see my sorrow.
