My fiancee & I were recently listening to Mozart's `Requiem' (which,
btw, we highly recommend), and I asked what, exactly, they were saying.

Much to my astonishment, she didn't know either, and we couldn't make
them out.  (It's not that Mozart took lessons from the Dead Kennedys, it's
that he wrote it in Latin.)


So I thought I'd ask if anyone knows what the words are, both what is
being said in Latin, and what it all translates to.


Thanks in advance.
