Introit

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 caro veniet.

Eternal rest give unto them, O Lord,
And let perpetual light shine upon them.
A hymn, O God, becomes you in Zion
And a vow shall be paid to you in Jerusalem.
Hear my prayer;
All flesh shall come before you.

Kyrie

Kyrie, eleison.
Christe, eleison.
Kyrie, eleison.

Lord, have mercy.
Christ, have mercy.
Lord, have mercy.

Offertorium

O Domine, Jesu Christe, Rex gloriae,
libera animas defunctorum
de poenis inferni
et de profundo lacu.
Libera eas de ore leonis
ne absorbeat eas tartarus,
ne cadant in obscurum;

Sed signifer sanctus Michael
repraesentet eas in lucem sanctam,
Quam olim Abrahae promisisti
et semini eius.

Hostias et preces tibi, Domine
laudis offerimus
tu suscipe pro animabus illis,
quarum hodie memoriam facimus.

Fac eas, Domine, de morte
transire ad vitam.
Quam olim Abrahae promisisti
et semine eius.

O Lord Jesus Christ, king of glory,
deliver the souls departed
from the pains of Hell
and the bottomless pit.
Deliver them from the jaws of the lion,
lest hell engulf them,
lest they be plunged into darkness;

but let the holy standard-bearer Michael
lead them into the holy light,
as once you promised to Abraham
and to his seed.

Lord, in praise we offer you
Sacrifices and prayers,
accept them on behalf of those
whom we remember this day:

Lord, make them pass
from death to life,
as once you promised to Abraham
and to his seed.

Sanctus

Sanctus, sanctus, sanctus
Dominus Deus Sabaoth!
Pleni sunt coeli et terra gloria tua.

Hosanna in excelsis!

Holy, holy, holy
Lord God of hosts!
Heaven and earth are full of your glory.

Hosanna in the highest!

Pie Jesu

Pie Jesu, Domine, dona eis requiem,
Dona eis Domine, sempiternam requiem

Merciful Lord Jesus, grant them rest,
Grant them Lord, eternal rest

Agnus Dei

Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi

dona eis requiem.
Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi,

dona eis requiem sempiternam.

O Lamb of God, you that take away the sins of the world,
Grant them rest.
O Lamb of God, you that take away the sins of the world,
Grant them eternal rest.

Libera Me

Libera me, Domine, de morte aeterna in die
illa tremenda, quando caeli movendi sunt et terra;
dum veneris iudicare saeclum per ignem.

Tremens factus sum ego, et timeo, dum discussio
venerit atque ventura ira.

Dies irae, dies illa, calamitatis et miseriae,
dies magna et amara valde.

Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine;
et lux perpetua luceat eis.

Deliver me, O Lord, from everlasting death on that
dread day, when the heavens and earth shall quake;
when Thou shalt come to judge the world by fire.

I am seized with trembling and I am afraid, until the day
of reckoning shall arrive and the wrath to come.

That day, a day of wrath, calamity and misery,
the great day and most bitter.

Rest eternal grant them, O Lord;
and let light perpetual shine upon them.

In Paradisum

In paradisum deducant te angeli,
in tuo adventu suscipiant te martyres,
et perducant te in civitatem sanctam Jerusalem.

Chorus angelorum te suscipiat,
et cum Lazaro quondam paupere
aeternam habeas requiem.

May the angels lead you into paradise,
may the martyrs receive you in your coming,
and may they guide you into the holy city, Jerusalem.

May the chorus of angels receive you
and with Lazarus once poor
may you have eternal rest.
