Lord Jesus Christ, King of gloryDomine Jesu Christe, Rex gloriae
Deliver the souls of all the faithful departedLibera animas defunctorum
From the pains of hellDe poenis inferni
And from the deep pitEt de profundo lacu
Deliver them from the lion's mouthLibera eas de ore leonis
Lest hell swallow them upNe absorbeat eas tartarus
Lest they fall into darknessNe cadant in obscurum

Receive them for those soulsTu suscipe pro animabus illis
