Caligaverunt oculi mei a fletu meo: quia elongatus est a me, qui consolabatur me: Videte, omnes populi, si est dolor similis sicut dolor meus.
 
V: O vos omnes, qui transitis per viam, attendite, et videte si est dolor similis sicut dolor meus
 
{{translation|English}}
My eyes are darkened by my tears: For He is far from me that conforted Me: See, O all ye people, if there be a sorrow like unto My sorrow
 
V. O all ye that pass by, behold and see if there be a sorrow like unto My sorrow
 
{{translation|Spanish}}
Se nublaron mis ojos a causa del llanto, porque se habia alejado de mi aquel que me consolaba.
Ved, pueblos todos, si existe dolor semejante al mio.
 
Todos vosotros, que pasasteís por el camino, prestad atención y ved si existe dolor semejante al mio.
 
{{translation|German}}
Dunkel sind meine Augen vom Weinen; denn er, der mich getröstet hat, ist fern von mir.
Schaut, ihr Völker alle, ob ein Schmerz sei gleich dem meinen.
V: O ihr alle, die ihr des Weges zieht, blickt her und schaut.

Description: No. 12 of Tenebrae Responsories, for Good Friday.
This moving work forms one of several responsories for Tenebrae. Like the other reponsories, this includes a verse, the response, a verse and another response. The response features a low setting for Altos, Tenors and Basses, and suprises the listener with a piercing treble/soprano note on the words "Si est dolor similis sicut dolor meus". Many people liken this to a cry of pain, as the words translate to "If there is any sorrow like my sorrow".
