'Miserere nostri, Domine', by Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina (c.1528-1594). Animated score to accompany singing by the Auckland Catholic Music Schola ( http://www.schola.org.nz ).
Miserere nostri Domine,
quia multum repleti sumus despectione,
... Quia multum repleta est anima nostra,
opprobrium abundantibus
et despectio superbis. (Psalm 122:3-4)
Pity us, Lord,
for we have had more than our share of scorn,
for our soul has had more than its share
of jeers from the complacent
and of scorn from the proud.
