Requiem Mass in D Minor

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's final Masterpiece was commissioned in mid 1791 by the Austrian count Franz Von Walsegg, as a Tribute to the passing of his young wife Anna. Mozart began his final composition in Prague, suffering from an undetermined illness, which would eventually take his life and rob him of the chance to see the completion of his Magnum Opus. After Mozart's death, his understudy 'Franz Xaver Süssmayr', at the behest of Mozart's wife, completed the missing parts of the Requiem.

Requiem Mass was first performed on January 2, 1793, in a private concert for the benefit of Mozart's grieving wife, Constanze Mozart.


The Following are the lyrics, translated from their Original Latin


Grant them eternal rest, Lord,
and let perpetual light shine on them.
You are praised, God, in Zion,
and homage will be paid to You in Jerusalem.
Hear my prayer,
to You all flesh will come.
Grant them eternal rest, Lord,
and let perpetual light shine on them.


Lord, have mercy on us.
Christ, have mercy on us.
Lord, have mercy on us.


Day of wrath, day of anger
will dissolve the world in ashes,
as foretold by David and the Sibyl.
Great trembling there will be
when the Judge descends from heaven
to examine all things closely.


The trumpet will send its wondrous sound
throughout earth's sepulchres
and gather all before the throne.
Death and nature will be astounded,
when all creation rises again,
to answer the judgment.
A book will be brought forth,
in which all will be written,
by which the world will be judged.
When the judge takes his place,
what is hidden will be revealed,
nothing will remain unavenged.
What shall a wretch like me say?
Who shall intercede for me,
when the just ones need mercy?


King of tremendous majesty,
who freely saves those worthy ones,
save me, source of mercy.


Remember, kind Jesus,
my salvation caused your suffering;
do not forsake me on that day.


Faint and weary you have sought me,
redeemed me, suffering on the cross;
may such great effort not be in vain.


Righteous judge of vengeance,
grant me the gift of absolution
before the day of retribution.

I moan as one who is guilty:
owning my shame with a red face;
suppliant before you, Lord.

You, who absolved Mary,
and listened to the thief,
give me hope also.

My prayers are unworthy,
but, good Lord, have mercy,
and rescue me from eternal fire.

Provide me a place among the sheep,
and separate me from the goats,
guiding me to Your right hand.


When the accused are confounded,
and doomed to flames of woe,
call me among the blessed.

I kneel with submissive heart,
my contrition is like ashes,
help me in my final condition.


That day of tears and mourning,
when from the ashes shall arise,
all humanity to be judged.
Spare us by your mercy, Lord,
gentle Lord Jesus,
grant them eternal rest. Amen.


Lord Jesus Christ, King of glory,
liberate the souls of the faithful,
departed from the pains of hell
and from the bottomless pit.
Deliver them from the lion's mouth,
lest hell swallow them up,
lest they fall into darkness.




Let the standard-bearer, holy Michael,
bring them into holy light.




Which was promised to Abraham
and his descendants.


Sacrifices and prayers of praise, Lord,
we offer to You.
Receive them in behalf of those souls
we commemorate today.
And let them, Lord,
pass from death to life,
which was promised to Abraham
and his descendants.


Lamb of God, who takes away
the sins of the world,
grant them eternal rest.
Lamb of God, who takes away
the sins of the world,
Grant them eternal rest.
Lamb of God, who takes away
the sins of the world,
grant them eternal rest forever.


Let eternal light shine on them, Lord,
as with Your saints in eternity,
because You are merciful.
Grant them eternal rest, Lord,
and let perpetual light shine on them,
as with Your saints in eternity,
because You are merciful.

    I live in Kansas. I listen to this whenever the weather goes to shit...

    Power goes out, thunder in the distance, the clouds roll in... Lightning, hail wind. Hell comes to Earth. Mozart completes the mood.

    One time I was caught out in the weather while I was running, and I started playing this on my MP3 player. I was being pelted with hail and everything while I ran home, but I'd never felt so fucking alive! It was like the world was crashing down around me but I didn't care.

    When his picture appears at 53 seconds and you see his eyes some strange feeling passes over you, especially because the music really starts at that time

    Un miedo que alcanza el éxtasis en la sorda capa superficial de mi ser, una pieza que me enmarca entre gritos y llantos, yo condenado por tan prodigiosa melodía de las grandes mentes de la Europa de viejos parapetos.
