Music: Peso/Pier - Words: Flegias
Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum
Executioners had finished
the crucifixion of the king on the cross
Executioners tied ropes
to the trunk of the cross
Executioners have done their job
nailing hands and feet to the cross
Torment, suffering
Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum
Bones smashed one upon the other
wounds were ripped blood bursts again
words of love and compassion
echoed through the air
Torment, suffering, passion, death
Scripsit autem et titulum pilatus
et posuit super crucem
erat autem scriptum
Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum
Jesus of Nazareth the king of the jews
The eminence on which the cross was planted was
about two feet higher than the surrouding parts
the feet of jesus were near the ground for his
friends
to be able to kiss them
and his face was turned to the north-west
Torment,
suffering, passion, death
