Lyrics
Dies irae, Dies illa,
Solvet saeclum in favilla,
Teste David cum Sibylla.
Quantus tremor est futurus,
Quando judex est venturus,
Cuncta stricte discussurus!
Tuba mirum spargens sonum
Per sepulchra regionum
Coget omnes ante thronum.
Mors stupebit et natura,
Cim resurget creatura
Judicanti responsura.
Liber scriptus proferetur,
In quo totum continetur,
Unde mundus judicetur.
Judex ergo cum sedebit,
Quidquid latet apparebit:
Nil inultum remanebit.
Quid sum miser tunc dicturus,
Quem patronum rogaturus,
Cum vix justus sit securus?
Lyrics translation
A day of wrath, that Day,
Pay dissolve in the dust,
Witness David with the Sibyl.
How much vibration is likely to be,
When the judge is come,
All strictly shattering!
Sound amazing showering
By graves regions
Compel all before the throne.
Death will be astounded and nature,
Cim will rise creation
Judicanti of the masters.
The book of life will be brought forward at,
In which the whole is contained,
Hence the world will be judged.
Judge therefore with sit,
Whatever is hidden will appear:
I'm not inultum remain.
What I am unhappy then tell him,
Whom the patron rogaturus,
When scarcely the just be secure?
