All Souls ~ Lux aeterna

apostolate — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 17:12:31 +0000

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. –
–
Lux aeterna luceat eis, Domine,
cum sanctis tuis in aeternum,
quia pius es.
Requiem aeternum dona eis, Domine,
et Lux perpetua luceat eis,
cum Sanctus tuis in aeternum,
quia pius es.
Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine,
et lux perpetua luceat eis.

From Catholiques1

please view in 480p mode.~
In ieiunio et fletu orabant sacerdotes: parce Domine populo tuo, et ne des hereditatem tuam in perditionem. Inter vestibulum et altare plorabant sacerdotes dicentes: Parce populo tuo.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Fasting and weeping, the priests shall pray: Spare thy people, Lord, and give not thy heritage over to destruction. Between the porch and altar, the priests shall pray: Spare thy people. Hear my prayer, O Lord
and let my crying come unto thee.
~~~~~~~~
Derelinquit impius viam suam, et vir iniquus cogitationes suas, et reveratur ad Dominum, et miserebitur eius: quia benignus at misericors est, et praestabilis super malitia, Dominus Deus noster.

The wicked man forsakes his ways, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return unto the Lord, and He will have mercy upon him: for the Lord our God is gracious and merciful, and ever ready to relent when he threatens disaster.

Dies Irae – Gregorian

apostolate — Thu, 04 Nov 2010 16:31:39 +0000

For this Month of November let us remember the Souls in purgatory and pray so that we too are prepared for our coming judgment. And for your meditation:

Dies iræ ! dies illa

Solvet sæclum in favilla:

Teste David cum Sibylla !

The day of wrath, that day

Will dissolve the world in ashes

As foretold by David and the sibyl!

Quantus tremor est futurus,

Quando iudex est venturus,

Cuncta stricte discussurus !

How much tremor there will be,

when the judge will come,

investigating everything strictly!

Tuba, mirum spargens sonum

–

Per sepulchra regionum,

Coget omnes ante thronum.

The trumpet, scattering

a wondrous sound

through the sepulchres of the regions,

will summon all before the throne.

Mors stupebit, et natura,

Cum resurget creatura,

Iudicanti responsura.

Death and nature will marvel,

when the creature arises,

to respond to the Judge.

Liber scriptus proferetur,

In quo totum continetur,

Unde mundus iudicetur.

The written book will be brought forth,

in which all is contained,

from which the world shall be judged.

Iudex ergo cum sedebit,

Quidquid latet, apparebit:

Nil inultum remanebit.

When therefore the judge will sit,

whatever hides will appear:

nothing will remain unpunished.

Quid sum miser tunc dicturus ?

Quem patronum rogaturus,

Cum vix iustus sit securus ?

What am I, miserable, then to say?

Which patron to ask,

when [even] the just may [only]

hardly be sure?

Rex tremendæ maiestatis,

Qui salvandos salvas gratis,

–

Salva me, fons pietatis.

King of tremendous majesty,

who freely savest those that have

to be saved,

save me, source of mercy.

Recordare, Iesu pie,

Quod sum causa tuæ viæ:

Ne me perdas illa die.

Remember, merciful Jesus,

that I am the cause of thy way:

lest thou lose me in that day.

Quærens me, sedisti lassus:

Redemisti Crucem passus:

–

Tantus labor non sit cassus.

Seeking me, thou sat tired:

thou redeemed [me] having

suffered the Cross:

let not so much hardship be lost.

Iuste iudex ultionis,

Donum fac remissionis

Ante diem rationis.

Just judge of revenge,

give the gift of remission

before the day of reckoning.

Ingemisco, tamquam reus:

Culpa rubet vultus meus:

Supplicanti parce, Deus.

I sigh, like the guilty one:

my face reddens in guilt:

Spare the supplicating one, God.

Qui Mariam absolvisti,

Et latronem exaudisti,

Mihi quoque spem dedisti.

Thou who absolved Mary,

and heardest the robber,

gavest hope to me, too.

Preces meæ non sunt dignæ:

Sed tu bonus fac benigne,

Ne perenni cremer igne.

My prayers are not worthy:

however, thou, Good [Lord], do good,

lest I am burned up by eternal fire.

Inter oves locum præsta,

Et ab hædis me sequestra,

Statuens in parte dextra.

Grant me a place among the sheep,

and take me out from among the goats,

setting me on the right side.

Confutatis maledictis,

Flammis acribus addictis:

Voca me cum benedictis.

Once the cursed have been rebuked,

sentenced to acrid flames:

Call thou me with the blessed.

Oro supplex et acclinis,

Cor contritum quasi cinis:

Gere curam mei finis.

I meekly and humbly pray,

[my] heart is as crushed as the ashes:

perform the healing of mine end.

Lacrimosa dies illa,

qua resurget ex favilla

iudicandus homo reus.

Huic ergo parce, Deus:

Tearful will be that day,

on which from the ashes arises

the guilty man who is to be judged.

Spare him therefore, God.

Pie Iesu Domine,

dona eis requiem. Amen.

Merciful Lord Jesus,

grant them rest. Amen.

Ave Maria!

In honor of the feast of one of the patrons of our FI house of studies (S.T.I.M.) here in Italy, we present this video of the Holy Mass celebrated in 2010 in Rome in the extraordinary form, with our co-founder Father Gabriele. It’s a mixture of highlights and music from the Mass, as well as some thoughts from our blessed scholastic philosopher/theologian, who died in 1308. The text is in both Italian and English.

Ave Maria!

It’s become a tradition that the FI clerics here in Italy – that is, those who are studying for the priesthood – hold a concert every September in honor of the Feast of Our Lady of the Royal Hall at our sanctuary in Comacchio, Italy. Here’s the second of the three-part series from that concert. The friars are from all different parts of the globe, including the US, Italy, the Philippines, Nigeria, Chad, Benin, and France, among others. Fr. Giovanni Manelli was conductor of the choir on this occasion. Our Lady of the Royal Hall, o pray for us!

Ave Maria!
