Ingemisco - Luciano Pavarotti
Ingemisco tanquam reus
Culpa rubet vultus meus
Supplicanti parce Deus
Qui Mariam absolvisti
Et latronem exaudisti
Mihi quoque spem dedisti
Preces meae non sunt dignae
Sed tu bonus fac benigne
Ne perenni cremer igne
Inter oves locum praesta
Et ab haedis me sequestra
Statuens in parte dextra
Guilty now I pour my moaning
All my shame with anguish owning
Spare o God Thy suppliant groaning
Through the sinful woman shriven
Through the dying thief forgiven
Thou to me a hope hast given
Worthless are my prayers and sighing
Yet good Lord in grace complying
Rescue me from fires undying
With Thy favoured sheep o place me
Not among the goats abase me
But to Thy right hand upraise me
