Dies irae, dies illa, solvet saeclum in favilla, teste David cum Sibylla.
Mors stupebit et natura, cum resurget creatura, judicanti responsura.
Recordare, Jesu pie, ne me perdas (illa die). Huic ergo parce, Deus, dona eis requiem.
Dies irae, dies illa, solvet saeclum in favilla, teste David cum Sibylla. Salva me!

Day of wrath and day of judgment, Earth shall perish in an instant,
as foretold by prophets ancient.
Death and nature both are shaken, as creation re-awakens,
to its Judge an answer making.
Remember me, merciful Jesus,
let me not perish (that terrible day).
Therefore, Gracious God, spare them, grant eternal rest to them.
Day of wrath and day of judgment, Earth shall perish in an instant,
as foretold by prophets ancient.
Save me!
