Dies iræ, dies illa
Solvet sæclum in favilla,
Teste David cum Sibylla.
Mors stupebit et natura,
Cum resurget creatura,
Judicanti responsura.
Recordare, Jesu pie,
Quod sum causa tuæ viæ:
Ne me perdas illa die.
Dies iræ, dies illa
Solvet sæclum in favilla,
Teste David cum Sibylla.
Day of wrath and doom impending.
David’s word with Sibyl’s blending,
Heaven and earth in ashes ending.
Death is struck, and nature quaking,
All creation is awaking,
To its Judge an answer making.
Think, kind Jesu! – my salvation
Caused Thy wondrous Incarnation;
Leave me not to reprobation.
Day of wrath and doom impending.
David’s word with Sibyl’s blending,
Heaven and earth in ashes ending.
