Media vita in morte sumus;	In the midst of life we are in death:
quem quaerimus adjutorem,	of whom may we seek for succour,
nisi te Domine,	but of thee, O Lord,
qui pro peccatis nostris (juste irasceris?)	who for our sins art (justly displeased?)
Sancte Deus,	Yet, O Lord God most holy,
Sancte fortis,	O Lord most mighty,
Sancte et misericors Salvator,	O holy and most merciful Saviour,
amarae morti ne tradas nos.	deliver us not into the bitter pains of eternal death.
