Pie Jesu: Lyrics and Renditions (a Christmastide post by an orthodox rebel)

Pie Jesu, Pie Jesu,
Pie Jesu, Pie Jesu,
Qui tollis peccata mundi
Dona eis requiem,
Dona eis requiem.

Agnus Dei, Agnus Dei,
Agnus Dei, Agnus Dei,
Qui tollis peccata mundi
Dona eis requiem,
Dona eis requiem.
Sempiternam, sempiternam requiem.

[Translation: 
Faithful Jesus, Faithful Jesus,
Faithful Jesus, Faithful Jesus,
You who take away the sins of the world
Grant them peace,
Grant them peace.

Lamb of God, Lamb of God,
Lamb of God, Lamb of God,
You who take away the sins of the world
Grant them peace,
Grant them peace.

Everlasting, everlasting peace.]
