Emendemus in melius<br>
quae ignoranter peccavimus:<br>
ne subito praeoccupati<br>
die mortis quaeramus<br>
spatium paenitentiae,<br>
et invenire non possimus.<br>
Attende Domine, et miserere:<br>
quia peccavimus tibi.<br>
Memento, homo, quia pulvis es<br>
et in pulverem reverteris.

Let us change for the better<br>
the sins we have thoughtlessly committed:<br>
lest we in sudden concern<br>
on the day of our death<br>
seek a space for repentance<br>
and cannot find one.<br>
Hear us, Lord, and have mercy on us:<br>
for we have sinned against you.<br>
Remember, man, that you are dust<br>
and to dust you will return.

Let us amend for the better <br>
where we have sinned through ignorance, <br>
lest, suddenly overtaken by the day of death, <br>
we seek space for repentance, <br>
and be not able to find it. <br>
Hearken, O Lord, and have mercy: <br>
for we have sinned against thee. <br>
Tenor: Remember, man, that thou art dust, <br>
and to dust thou shalt return.<br>
