Réquiem Em Ré Menor (K.626)

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord
And let perpetual light shine upon them
A hymn, O God, befits You in Zion, and
To You shall a vow be repaid in Jerusalem
Hear my prayer, to You all
Flesh shall come
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord
And let perpetual light shine upon them

Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy

Day of wrath, that day
Will dissolve the world in ashes
As David and the Sibyl bear witness

How much tremor there will be
When the judge will come
To judge everything strictly!

A trumpet, spreading a wondrous sound
Through the tombs of every land
Will drive all before the throne

Death and nature will marvel
When creation rises again
To answer the Judge

A written book will be brought forth
In which all is contained
From which the world shall be judged

When therefore the Judge will sit
Whatever hides will appear
Nothing will remain unavenged

What then shall I say, wretch that I am
What advocate entreat to speak for me
When even the righteous may hardly be secure?

King of tremendous majesty
Who freely saves those worthy ones
Save me, source of mercy!

Remember, kind Jesus
My salvation caused Your suffering
Do not forsake me on that day

Seeking me, You sat down weary
You redeemed me, having suffered the Cross
Do not let such toil be in vain

Just and avenging Judge
Grant remission before the day of reckoning

I groan as one guilty
My face blushes with guilt
Spare the supplicant, O God

You who absolved Mary
And listened to the thief
To me also have given hope

My prayers are not worthy
But be kind to me, O Good One
Lest I be consumed by eternal fire

Among the sheep offer me a place
And separate me from the goats
Placing me at Your right hand

When the accused are confounded
And doomed to flames of woe
Call me among the blessed

I kneel with submissive heart
My contrition is like ashes
Take care of my end

Mournful that day
When from the dust shall rise
Guilty man to be judged
Therefore spare him, O God
Merciful Lord Jesus
Grant them rest, amen

Lord Jesus Christ, King of glory, deliver
The souls of all the faithful departed from the pains of hell
And from the deep pit: Deliver them from the mouth
Of the lion, lest hell swallow them up, lest they fall into darkness
But let the holy standard-bearer Michael lead them into the holy light
Which You once promised to Abraham and his seed

We offer You sacrifices and prayers, O Lord
Receive them for those souls, whom today
We commemorate: Make them, O Lord, from death
Pass to the life, which You once promised to Abraham and his seed

Holy, Holy, Holy
Lord God of Hosts
Heaven and earth are full of Your glory
Hosanna in the highest

Blessed is He who comes
In the name of the Lord
Hosanna in the highest

Lamb of God
Who takes away the sins of the world
Grant them rest

Lamb of God
Who takes away the sins of the world
Grant them rest

Lamb of God
Who takes away the sins of the world
Grant them eternal rest

May eternal light shine upon them, O Lord
With Your saints forever: For You are merciful
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord: And let perpetual
Light shine upon them. With Your saints in
Eternity: For You are merciful
