Original text and translations

Latin text

Jesu, dulcedo cordium,
Fons vivus, lumen mentium,
Excedens omne gaudium
& omne desiderium,
excedens omne gaudium.

Expertus potest credere,
quid sit Jesum diligere,
nec lingua valet dicere,
nec litera exprimere,
expertus potest credere
quid sit Jesum diligere.
