Elfen Lied – Lilium

Elfen Lied was the first anime I really got into. Granted, it’s only 13 episodes, gory as can be, and really not recommendable to 15-year-olds, which is how old I was when I first watched it.

The opening to the anime remains one of my all-time favorite songs from any anime series. Composed by Kumiko Noma (小黒久美子) and arranged by yours truly.

Lyrics

(With thanks to AnimeLyrics.com)

Os iusti meditabitur sapientiam,
Et lingua eius loquetur indicium.

Beatus vir qui suffert tentationem,
Quoniqm cum probates fuerit accipient coronam vitae.

Kyrie, fons bonitatis.
Kyrie, ignis divine, eleison.

O quam sancta, quam serena,
Quam benigma, quam amoena esse Virgo creditur.
O quam sancta, quam serena,
Quam benigma, quam amoena,
O castitatis lilium.

Kyrie, fons bonitatis.
Kyrie, ignis divine, eleison.

O quam sancta, quam serena,
Quam benigma, quam amoena,
O castitatis lilium.

  1. Could you maybe post one like this but with the lyrics? It’s really hard learning to sing this song by just listening to it constantly.

  2. I have gone to Virtualpiano.com and played it, and searched up it on youtube and I know some, about a minute of it, I’d like to learn the bit harder version, currently I only know the easy version v…v

  3. Hi, I was trying to find a sheet of this song for Saxophone alto. I kinda wanted to try and translate it, but wow seems pretty harsh! If anyone could help me out, it would be GREATLY appreciated!
    Thank you so much in advance! ;)
