Today marks Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s 266th birthday. A haunting piece of music that will live forever is the Lacrimosa from his Requiem in D minor. As you celebrate his life listen… listen with the ears of your heart, listen with your whole body, and let the listening carry you into the heart of Love.
Lacrimosa dies illa Qua resurget ex favilla Judicandus homo reus
Lacrimosa dies illa Qua resurget ex favilla Judicandus homo reus:
Huic ergo parce Deus Pie Jesu, Jesu Domine
Dona eis requiem Dona eis requiem
Amen
One tentative translation:
Tearful shall be that day, When from the ashes shall arise The sinful man to be judged.
Tearful shall be that day, When from the ashes shall arise The sinful man to be judged.
