Cristóbal de Morales: Peccantem me quotidie





Fra Angelico, Penitent St. Jerome. Princeton University, c.1424

Peccantem me quotidie
et non penitentem,
Timor mortis conturbat me.

I sin every day
and am not penitent;
the fear of death upsets me:

Quia in inferno nulla est redemptio. 
Miserere mei, Deus, et salva me.

Because in hell there is no redemption.
Have mercy upon me, O God, and save me.
