I
know of only one other website on the Internet that offers free audio recordings
of Latin Catholic prayers, and I made that website myself as one of my charitable
donations. Now, for my own website, here, I have re-recorded these prayers.
And, yes, it’s my own voice.
These are .wav files, so they should open on any computer
without special software.
I have made these recordings
for their teaching value. Aside from my inevitable American accent, I try
to speak simply and clearly, so that you can discern each syllable. Nothing
is worse than trying to imitate a language when a speaker’s heavy accent
overshadows the basic linguistic sounds. After you learn the basic sounds,
you can add your own accent as you prefer.
IF YOU FIND THESE
RECORDINGS HELPFUL, PLEASE SEND A FREEWILL OFFERING IN GRATITUDE FOR THE
BENEFITS YOU HAVE RECEIVED.
N.B. The accent marks in the texts
tell where to place the stress in words of three or more syllables. The marks
are a convention developed by the Church, not an integral part of the Latin
language itself.
THE
SIGN OF THE CROSS
IN
nómine Patris, et Fílii, et Spíritus Sancti.
Amen.
THE
GLORIA PATRI
GLORIA
Patri, et Fílio, et Spíritui Sancto.
R. Sicut erat in princípio et nunc et
semper et in saécula sæculórum. Amen.
THE
LORD’S PRAYER
PATER
noster, qui es in coelis,
sanctificétur nomen tuum.
Advéniat regnum tuum.
Fiat volúntas tua,
sicut in coelo et in terra.
Panem nostrum quotidiánum
da nobis hódie.
Et dimítte nobis débita nostra,
sicut et nos dimíttimus
debitóribus nostris.
Et ne nos indúcas in tentatiónem:
sed líbera nos a malo. Amen.
THE
ANGELIC SALUTATION
AVE
María, grátia plena,
Dóminus tecum;
benedícta tu in muliéribus,
et benedíctus fructus ventris tui, Iesus.
Sancta María, Mater Dei,
ora pro nobis peccatóribus,
nunc et in hora mortis nostræ. Amen.
THE
APOSTLES’ CREED
CREDO
in Deum,
Patrem omnipoténtem,
Creatórem cœli et terræ.
Et in Jesum Christum,
Fílium ejus únicum,
Dóminum nostrum;
qui concéptus est
de Spíritu Sancto;
natus ex María Vírgine;
passus sub Póntio Piláto,
crucifíxus, mórtuus,
et sepúltus:
Descéndit ad inféros;
tértia die
resurréxit a mórtuis:
ascéndit ad cœlos,
sedet ad déxteram
Dei Patris omnipoténtis;
inde ventúrus est
judicáre vivos et mórtuos.
Credo in Spíritum Sanctum,
sanctam Ecclésiam cathólicam,
Sanctórum communiónem,
remissiónem peccatórum,
carnis resurrectiónem,
vitam ætérnam.
Amen.
ANIMA
CHRISTI
ANIMA
Christi, sanctífica me.
Corpus Christi, salva me.
Sanguis Christi, inébria me.
Aqua láteris Christi, lava me.
Pássio Christi, confórta me.
O bone Iesu, exáudi me.
Intra tua vúlnera abscónde me.
Ne permíttas me separári a te.
Ab hoste malígno defénde me.
In hora mortis meæ voca me.
Et iube me veníre ad te,
Ut cum Sanctis tuis laudem te
In saécula sæculórum.
Amen.
THE
MAGNIFICAT
MAGNIFICAT
ánima mea Dóminum:
Et exultávit spíritus meus
in Deo salutári meo.
Quia respéxit humilitátem ancíllæ suæ:
Ecce enim ex hoc beátam me dicent omnes generatiónes.
Quia fecit mihi magna qui potens est:
et sanctum nomen eius.
Et misericórdia eius a progénie in progénies
timéntibus eum.
Fecit poténtiam in bráchio suo:
dispérsit supérbos mente cordis sui:
Depósuit poténtes de sede
et exaltávit húmiles.
Esuriéntes implévit bonis;
et dívites dimísit inánes.
Suscépit Israël púerum suum,
recordátus misericórdiæ suæ.
Sicut locútus est ad patres nostros,
Abraham et sémini eius in saécula.
