Mysterious Art Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cum sanctis tuis in aeternum, quia pius es
Requiem aeternam dona eis Domine
Et lux perpetua luceat eis
Exaudi orationem meam
I will pray for you, will you pray for me
It`s the sacred thought, it`s our destiny
I will pray for you, will you pray for me
Libera me, Domine, de morte aeterna, in die illa tremenda
Quando coeli movendi sunt et terra
Tremens factus sum ego et timeo, dum discussion venerit atque venture ira
Libera me, Domine, de morte aeterna
Exaudi orationem meam
I will pray for you, will you pray for me
It`s the sacred thought, it`s our destiny
I will pray for you, will you pray for me
It`s the sacred thought, it`s our destiny
Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine
Et lux perpetua luceat eis
Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine
Et lux perpetua luceat eis
I will pray for you, will you pray for me
It`s the sacred thought, it`s our destiny
I will pray for you, will you pray for me
It`s the sacred thought, it`s our destiny
The lyrics of Mysterious Art's song Requiem are a mix of Latin and English, with a somber and solemn tone. The Latin verses are prayers for the departed souls, asking for eternal rest and perpetual light to shine upon them, with a plea for deliverance from eternal death. The English verses, on the other hand, seem to be a conversation or a thought directed towards someone else, with an invitation to prayer and to share spiritual thoughts.
The juxtaposition of the two languages and themes creates a complex and intriguing atmosphere, where the sacred and the profane, the living and the dead, the past and the present, are intertwined. The uncertainty of what happens after death, the fear and awe that it inspires, and the need for connection and support are all present in the lyrics, making Requiem a haunting and emotive song that explores universal human concerns.
