Anima Christi

In Latin

Anima Chrísti, sanctífica me
Córpus Chrísti, sálva me.

Sánguis Chrísti, inébriea me
aqua láteris Christi, láva me.

Pássio Chrísti, confórta me.
O bóne Jesu, exáudi me.

Intra túa vúlnera abscónde me
ne permíttas me separári a te.

Ab hóste malígno defénde me
in hóra mórtis meae vóca me

Et jube me veníre ad te
ut cum Sánctis tuis láudem te in saécula saeculórum.

Amen.

In Swahili*

Nafsi wa Kristo, nitakase mi
Mwili wa Kristo, saidie mimi.

Damu ya Kristo, nijazie mi
Maji ya upande wa Kristo osha mimi.

Msalabani wa Kristo nilize mi
O Bwana Jesu, sikize mimi.

Na vidonda vyako weke mimi
Usiache mimi kutoka wewe.

In English

Soul of Christ, sanctify me.
Body of Christ, save me.

Blood of Christ, inebriate me.
Water of the side of Christ, wash me.

Passion of Christ, comfort me.
O good Jusus, hear me.

Within Thy wounds, hide me.
Do not permit me to be separated from Thee.

From the foe malign defend me.
In the hour of death of mine call me.

And bid me come to Thee.
That with Saints of Thine I may praise Thee unto ages of ages.

Amen.
