When the heavens are to be moved,

quando coeli movendi sunt et terra.

when the heavens are to be moved as well as the earth

Dum veneris judicare saeculum per ignem.

Until you will have come to pass judgement on the world by fire

Tremens, tremens factus sum ego,

Shaking, shaking I have been made to be

et timeo, dum discussio venerit

And I fear until the judgement will come

at que ventura ira.

And the wrath to come

Dies illa, dies iræ,

That day, day of wrath,

calamitatis et miseriæ.

Of damage and of misfortune

Dies illa, dies magna

That day, the big day

et amara, amara valde.

And the bitter one, the so bitter one

Requiem æternum donna eis, Domine,

Give them eternal rest, Lord,

et lux perpetua luceat eis, luceat eis.

And may the eternal light shine upon them, may it shine upon them
