Latin

Quid sum miser tunc dicturus?
quem patronum rogaturus?
cum vix iustus sit securus.

Mors stupebit et natura,
cum resurget creatura,
iudicanti responsura.

Ingemisco, tamquam reus,
culpa rubet vultus meus,
supplicanti parce Deus.

Liber scriptus proferetur,
in quo totum continetur,
unde mundus iudicetur.

Preces meae non sunt dignae,
sed tu bonus fac benigne,
ne perenni cremer igne.

Iudex ergo cum sedebit,
quidquid latet apparebit,
nil inultum remanebit.

English

What shall I, frail man, be pleading?
Who for me be interceding,
When the just are mercy needing?

Death is struck, and nature quaking,
All creation is awaking,
To its Judge an answer making.

Guilty now I pour my moaning,
All my shame with anguish owning,
Spare, O God, Thy suppliant groaning.

Lo, the book exactly worded,
Wherein all hath been recorded,
Thence shall judgment be awarded.

Worthless are my prayers and sighing,
Yet, good Lord, in grace complying,
Rescue me from fires undying.

When the Judge His seat attaineth,
And each hidden deed arraigneth,
Nothing unavenged remaineth.
