Lacrimosa / Tears (Latin)

Lacrimosa! Lacrimosa! Lacrimosa!
Das mille lacrimosa et centum triplex
Non amoenitate diruat illas cruces!
Lacrimosa mi palpebras base
Ac tu ex me ocululis vade!

Es lacrifer sum lacrimare
Tange amici argentate!
Lacrimosa! Lacrimosa!
Peri mordax lacrimose!

Translation:

Tears! Tears! Tears!
I give a thousand tears
And a hundred three times over
Nothing good could break these crosses!
Tears, give my eyelids kisses
And you, flee now from my eyes and me!

You’re the one who bears the tears
I’m the one who cries
Pull that cord, my silver friend!
Tears! Tears!
Perish, loathsome drop!
