Description:
In 1929 Kodály set to music the hymn Pange lingua by Thomas of Aquin. It premiered in the same year in Budapest (with the choirs of the Attila-Street-School and the Szilágyi-Erzsébet-School and Ernö Riegler as organist, conducted by Adrienne B. Sztojanovits).
Lyrics:
Pange, lingua, gloriosi
Corporis mysterium,
Sanguinisque pretiosi,
quem in mundi pretium
fructus ventris generosi
Rex effudit Gentium.
Nobis datus, nobis natus
ex intacta Virgine,
et in mundo conversatus,
sparso verbi semine,
sui moras incolatus
miro clausit ordine.
In supremae nocte coenae
recumbens cum fratribus
observata lege plene
cibis in legalibus,
cibum turbae duodenae
se dat suis manibus.
Etc.
