1. Requiem Aeternum
The hour of parting is at hand
Amorous eyes, crippling word I bring
Grief vents itself more violently
My God be upheld in our distress
My cries fill the air
The fangs of suffering tear my bosom
And refuse to release their hold
The hour of parting is at hand
Requiem aeternum dona eis Domine
Requiem
Requiem aeternum dona eis Domine
Exaudi orationem meam
Requiem
Amorous eyes, crippling word I bring
Grief vents itself more violently
The hour of parting is...
I tread alone, I am struck and am suffering
I tread alone, tread alone, I am suffering
Kyrie eleison, Et lux perpetua luceat eis
Kyrie eleison, Kyrie eleison
Requiem aeternum dona eis Domine
2. Dies Irae
My God be upheld in our distress
Save us according to your mercy
O death, so gallantly arrayed
Dare you prey upon my heart
And devote us to decay
Dies illa, dies irae
3. Until Death
Misery calls, the dark night of the soul
Abandonment carries me home
The prayer of the forsaken
A prayer to Thee
Agnus dei qui tollis peccata mundi dona eis
Requiem
I'm made blind with weeping, and will mourn until death
4. Kyrie Eleison
Ad caput coronam florum alborum attolo
Et queror infelicitatem
Valedictionem meam tristem
Haurio penitus in animam tuam
You take bread from hands that hold so little
And show treason to a faithful heart
I'm made blind with weeping
And will mourn until death
Misery calls
I'm made blind with weeping
Misery calls
Thanatos Kyrie eleison
Ad caput coronam florum alborum attolo
Et queror infelicitatem
5. Libera Eis Domine
Libera Eis Domine
There is no healing balm of reason
Beside the grave of my beloved
Libera Eis Domine
Death with so pitiless a laugh
You reveal yourself with famished indulgence
Death with so...
Libera Eis Domine
There is no healing balm of reason
When will my sorrow begin to pale?
Gather me, for I am scattered
Speak comfort to me
Share my sorrow
Gather me, share my sorrow
6. Lacrimosa (I Tread Alone)
Where is my God, in the dull ear of night?
With tuneless voice, a requiem sung
On a flower strewn to Earth, where is my God?
I tread alone
I've been struck and I am suffering
Where is my God, in the dull ear of night?
With tuneless voice, a requiem sung
On a flower strewn to Earth, where is my God?
Hold me, hold me
I am in desperation
Hold me, hold me
I tread alone
My groans scarce express
I tread alone
Call into my darkness
Speak my name
Hold me
Draw me close, lay me soft
Gather me
Lacrimosa
Draw me close, lay me soft
Gather me
I tread alone, I tread alone
Hold me, hold me
I tread alone
7. Pie Jesu
Pie Jesu qui tollis peccata mindu dona eis requiem
Summer has died, but I live to weep tears
Flowers have fallen, their fragrance shed
Sorrow sways to the pangs of my heart
I listen for hope, she refuses to sing
Lifeless life cradles lifeless death
Pie Jesu qui tollis peccata mundi dona eis requiem
My blood has fallen to winter's still
My blood had fallen
Found in silence, and greying light
My blood has fallen
Requiem aeternum dona eis Domine
Exaudi orationem meam
Requiem
I am in the dust, but there I find You
And I will mourn until death
8. Remembrance
Lux aeterna luceat eis Domine quia pious es
Gather me, for I am scattered
Speak comfort to me, share my sorrow
Gather me, share my sorrow
Gather me, share my sorrow
