Dies irae, dies illa
Solvet saeclum in favilla,
Teste David cum Sibylla.
Quantus tremor est futurus
Quando judex est venturus
Cuncta stricte discussurus.

Day of wrath, that day
Will dissolve the earth in ashes
As foretold by David and the Sibyl.
What dread there will be
When the Judge shall come
To judge all things strictly.
