Mozart: Requiem in D minor, K.626 - Completed by Joseph Eybler & Franz Xaver Süssmayr - Recordare (original)

Recordare, Jesu pie
Quod sum causa tuae viae
Ne me perdas illa die
Ne me perdas illa die
Quaerens me, sedisti, lassus
Redemisti crucem passus
Tantus labor non sit cassus
Tantus labor non sit cassus
Juste Judex ultionis
Donum fac remissionis
Ante diem rationis
Ante diem rationis
Ingemisco tanquam reus
Ingemisco tanquam reus
Culpa rubet vultus meus
Culpa rubet vultus meus
Supplicanti parce, Deus
Qui Mariam absolvisti
Et latronem exaudisti
Mihi quoque spem dedisti
Mihi quoque spem dedisti
Preces meae non sunt dignae
Sed tu, bonus, fac benigne
Ne perenni cremer igne
Ne perenni cremer igne
Inter oves locum praesta
Et ab hoedis me sequestra
Statuens in parte dextra
Statuens in parte dextra
Ingemisco tanquam reus
Ingemisco tanquam reus
Culpa rubet vultus meus
Culpa rubet vultus meus
Supplicanti parce, Deus

(translation)

Remember, Merciful Jesus
That I am the cause of your journey
Don't waste that day
Don't waste that day
Look for me, you're tired
You have redeemed me on the cross
Let not such work be in vain
Let not such work be in vain
Righteous Judge of revenge
The gift of forgiveness
Before the day of the account
Before the day of the account
I groan as if guilty
I groan as if guilty
Owning my face
Owning my face
Spare the supplicant, God
You absolved Mary
And you heard the robber
You gave me hope too
You gave me hope too
My prayers are not worthy
But you, good man, do kindly
Everlasting fire
Everlasting fire
Place among the sheep
And you will set me apart
Setting up on the right
Setting up on the right
I groan as if guilty
I groan as if guilty
Owning my face
Owning my face
Spare the supplicant, God
