Original text and translations

Latin text Christe Dei soboles spes et mea sola voluptas    nectareus stillat cujus ab ore liquor. Ecce tibi leve xeniolum fero promptus ad aram    te nihil in toto est carius orbe mihi. Accipe daque mihi pro votis gaudia coeli    gaudia prae cunctis nam tua semper amo nec nisi sola queat restringere mentis amorem    Atropos, ah peto te praeter amare nihil.

English translation O Christ, offspring of God, my hope and sole delight, from whose lips nectar drops; behold, I bring thee my unworthy little gift readily to the altar. Nothing in the whole world is more dear to me than thee. Translation by St Ann choir   English translation requested
