Dies Irae Lyrics & Translation | Mozart Requiem 

Indeed! Mozart's my favourite composer, and his requiem is one of my favourite pieces too ^^ I missed you Lunadherent, I'm glad you're back :)

@@AntoniusTertius Thanks man, I've been very busy lately but I'm glad to be back :)

@@Lunadherent So am I :) I managed to confirm the lyrics of 2 Bloodborne songs by the way.

@@AntoniusTertius You mean Ludwig and Laurence? Because I was just checking those ahahah

@@Lunadherent Precisely :)

Mozart made a variation of the famous "Ah! Vous dirai-je, Maman", then Mozart's variation was used in the "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star", everytime you hear it, know that the rhythm is that of Mozart's variation, most of the melody came from "Ah! Vous dirai-je, Maman", but Mozart changed some parts ^^ Yeah, Mozart's Requiem is amazing! Luckily there are few game songs with Latin lyrics: One-winged angel from Final Fantasy VII, some from Bloodborne and song of lament from Elden Ring(all the other songs there are not in Latin and mean nothing though); I published those on my channel. But overall game songs lack meaningful lyrics as you pointed out.

Mozart took the lyrics from a medieval Latin poem and so did Verdi. I never listened to Verdi's requiem, but the lyrics are the same. This is the medieval Latin poem from which the lyrics of the Requiem came: Dies iræ, dies illa, Solvet sæclum in favilla: Teste David cum Sibylla. Quantus tremor est futurus, Quando Iudex est venturus, Cuncta stricte discussurus! Tuba, mirum spargens sonum Per sepulchra regionum, Coget omnes ante thronum. Mors stupebit, et natura, Cum resurget creatura, Iudicanti responsura. Liber scriptus proferetur, In quo totum continetur, Unde mundus iudicetur. Iudex ergo cum sedebit, Quidquid latet, apparebit: Nil inultum remanebit. Quid sum miser tunc dicturus? Quem patronum rogaturus, Cum vix iustus sit securus? Rex tremendæ maiestatis, Qui salvandos salvas gratis, Salva me, fons pietatis. Recordare, Iesu pie, Quod sum causa tuæ viæ: Ne me perdas illa die. Quærens me, sedisti lassus: Redemisti Crucem passus: Tantus labor non sit cassus. Iuste Iudex ultionis, Donum fac remissionis Ante diem rationis. Ingemisco, tamquam reus: Culpa rubet vultus meus: Supplicanti parce, Deus. Qui Mariam absolvisti, Et latronem exaudisti, Mihi quoque spem dedisti. Preces meæ non sunt dignæ: Sed tu bonus fac benigne, Ne perenni cremer igne. Inter oves locum præsta, Et ab hædis me sequestra, Statuens in parte dextra. Confutatis maledictis, Flammis acribus addictis, Voca me cum benedictis. Oro supplex et acclinis, Cor contritum quasi cinis: Gere curam mei finis. Lacrimosa dies illa, Qua resurget ex favílla Iudicandus homo reus: Huic ergo parce, Deus: Pie Iesu Domine, Dona eis requiem. Amen

Valeu mesmo, Arthur ^^

I'm glad I surprised you that way :) I used this version because it is acappella, no instrumental sounds, which is perfect to listen to the lyrics being sung. Here the only pronunciation problem I could detect is at the very end when the male singers sing "stricti" instead of "stricte", aside from that, everything else seems to be pronounced correctly. The other versions out there have the instrumental sounds, so I recommend that you look for acappella versions. I can't think of any version in particular right now, as when I listen to Mozart's dies irae, I can't hear the lyrics as clearly as I do here.

You're welcome ^^

Thank you very much! Mozart is my favorite composer ^-^

Thank you so much amigo Hugo ^^ Mozart's my favourite composer and his choral music is amazing :)

I lack words to describe this Mozart's masterpiece! I will try to make a video with the full Requiem. Thank you very much for your comment ^^

Concordo! Mozart é o meu compositor favorito! Já escutou vesperae solennes de confessore k.339? Recomendo. Anos atrás, cheguei a publicar um vídeo com mais de 11 horas, uma coletânea com todas as composições dele em claves menores (the dark side of Mozart). Infelizmente, o vídeo foi bloqueado inúmeras vezes por direitos autorais, daí acabei removendo de vez :(

@@AntoniusTertius que pena, achava que essas músicas fossem todas sem direitos autorais, irei ouvir essa que me recomendou, obrigado.

@@RaphaelPerfeito Havia mais de 70 músicas no vídeo, não consegui encontrar gravações livres para todas. Quem sabe um dia... Ah sim, não há de quê :) Escute também as grandes missas dele (a incompleta e a complete, essa foi composta quando tinha 12 anos, acho).

Wow! Your remark surprised me! That phrase in Latin would be "(Nos) salutamus Satan" ^^
