 * Latin Text:

dies illa

Solvet saeclum in favilla:

Teste David cum Sybilla.

Quantus tremor est futurus

Quando judex est venturus

Cuncta stricte discussurus!

Dies irae

dies illa

Solvet saeclum in favilla:

Teste David cum Sybilla

Quantus tremor est futurus

Quatdo judex est venturus

Cuncta stricte discussurus!

Quantus tremor est futurus

Dies irae, dies illa

Quantus tremor est futurus

Dies irae, dies illa

Quantus tremor est futurus

Quantus tremor est futurus

Quando judex est venturus

Cuncta stricte discussurus

Cuncta stricte

Cuncta stricte

Stricte discussurus

Cuncta stricte

Cuncta stricte

Stricte discussurus!

The day of wrath, that day Will dissolve the world in ashes As foretold by David and the Sibyl! How much tremor there will be, when the judge will come, investigating everything strictly!
