Original text and translations

Latin text 25  Tunc amplexus, tunc oscula Quae vincunt mellis pocula. Tunc felix Christi copula Sed in his parva morula. 26  Tam quod quaesivi video: Quod concupivi teneo: Amore Jesu langueo, Et corde totus ardeo.

English translation 25  Then embraces, then kisses, that are more powerful than cups of honey. Then a happy union with Christ after a short while. 26  There is what I have searched for: There what I have desired to hold: I am sick for the love of Jesus, And my whole heart burns. Translation by James Gibb
