Requiem Mass in D-Minor (K. 626)

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Missa Defunctorum

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Lyrics: Traditional Catholic Requiem Mass English version by Yousef Hindy ’15

I. Introit: Requiem Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine,
 et lux perpetua luceat eis.
 Te decet hymnus, Deus, in Sion,
 et tibi reddetur votum in Jerusalem.
 Exaudi orationem meam,
 ad te omnis care veniet.
 Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine,
 et lux perpetua luceat eis. II. Kyrie Kyrie, eleison.
 Christe, eleison.
 Kyrie, eleison.

I. Introit: Requiem O Lord, grant to them an eternal slumber And let the everlasting light shine on them. A song is right for You, O God, in Zion And the pledge will be delivered to you in Jerusalem. Hear clearly my prayer, All flesh will come to you. O Lord, grant to them an eternal slumber And let the everlasting light shine on them. II. Kyrie O Lord, have mercy on us. O Christ, have mercy on us. O Lord, have mercy on us. III. Sequence

III. Sequence 1. Dies Irae Dies irae, dies illa
 Solvet saeclum in favilla,
 teste David cum Sibylla.
 Quantus tremor est futurus,
 quando judex est venturus,

1. Dies Irae The day of wrath, that day Will free the world in the ashes, Like David said with the prophetess as a witness. How great the trembling is to be, When the judge is to come, to shatter all things tightly!
