歌詞

Salva nos domine vigilantes,
custodi nos dormientes:
ut vigilemus cum Christo,
et requiescamus in pace.
Custodi nos, domine, ut pupillam oculi:
sub umbra alarum tuarum protege nos.
Before sunset and the appearance of the first star in the sky,
just before the beginning of the sabbath,
two men enshroud a body.
Never have they done this work before.
Though well-versed in the laws and traditions involved in the task,
their hands lack skill.
Wash the body.
Lay it out.
Fetch the clean linen cloths.
Fold the shroud like this,
and the other cloth over the face.
In every fold, pour spices.
Spices and more spices;
myrrh and aloes.
Thou wilt not give thy holy one to see corruption.
Jesus never hesitated to touch the dead—
the widow's son being carried out of Nain for burial,
Jairus' little girl laid on the bed while the mourners wailed outside.
Every touch tells them:
Jesus is dead, as dead as earth.
They know when one is dead and when one lives.
While still inside the tomb they pray:
'Blessed and praised,
glorified and exalted,
extolled and honoured,
adored and lauded be the name of the Holy One,
blessed be He,
beyond all the blessings,
and hymns, praises and consolations
that are ever uttered in the world;
and let all say, Amen.'
