Lacrimosa dies illa,
qua resurget ex favilla
judicandus h*** reus.
Huic ergo parce, Deus:
Pie Jesu Domine
(dona eis requiem. Amen.) **
> Translation <
Ah! that day of tears and mourning!
From the dust of earth returning
man for judgment must prepare him;
Spare, O God, in mercy spare him!
Lord, all pitying, Jesus blest,
(grant them thine eternal rest. Amen)
