Dies Irae (2011)

LYRICS (latin):

Oculi mei languerunt prae inopia.
Clamavi ad te Domine tota die.

Numquid mortuis facies mirabilia?
Numquid narrabit aliquis in sepulchro misericordiam tuam?
Et veritatem tuam in perditione?
Numquid cognoscentur in tenebris mirabilia tua,
Et iustitia tua in terra oblivionis?

Elongasti a me amicum et proximum
Et notos meos a miseria.
__________________________________________

[English translation]

My eyes languished through poverty.
All the day I cried to thee, O Lord.

Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead?
Shall any one in the sepulchre declare thy mercy?
And thy truth in destruction?
Shall thy wonders be known in the dark,
And thy justice in the land of forgetfulness?

Friend and neighbour thou hast put far from me
And my acquaintance, because of misery.
