Original text and translations
Latin text
Inveterata sunt ossa mea,
in dies expectant dolores mortis,
ut rationem reddam villicationis meae,
ante conspectum Redemptoris,
qui pro nobis passus
peccata nostra luit in crucis patibulo.
English text
My bones are grown old;
Day by day they have been awaiting the sorrows of death
that I may give an account of my stewardship
before the eyes of the Redeemer,
who, suffering for us,
attoned for our sins in the torture of the cross.
