The Song Of The Sybil (Orginal Catalan Version) Al jorn del Judici parràqui hauràfet servici. Un rei vendràperpetual vestit de nostra carn mortal; del cel vindràtot certament per fer del segle jutjament. Ans que el Judici no seràun gran senyal se mostrarà: lo sol perdràlo resplendor, la terra tremiràde por. Après se badaràmolt fort amostrant-se de greu conhort; mostrar-se han ab crits i trons les infernals confusions. Del cel gran foc davallarà, com a sofre molt pudirà; la terra cremaràab furor, la gent hauràmolt gran terror. Après seràun fort senyal d'un terratrèmol general; les pedres per mig se rompran i les muntanyes se fondran. Llavors ningu tindràtalent d'or, riqueses ni argent, esperant tots quina seràLa sente`ncia que es darà. De morir seran tots sos talents, esclafir-los han totes les dents; no hi hauràhome que no plor, tot lo mon seràen tristor. Los puigs i plans seran iguals, alli seran los bons i mals, reis, ducs, comtes i barons, que de llurs fets retran raons. Après vindràterriblement lo Fill de Déu omnipotent; de morts i vius judicarà: qui bé hauràfet alli es parrà. Los infants qui nats no seran dintre ses mares cridaran i diran tots plorosament: "Ajuda'ns, De'u omnipotent". Mare de Déu, pregau per nos, puix sou mare de pecadors, que bona sente`ncia hajam i paradis possejam. Vosaltres tots qui escoltau, devotament a Déu pregau de cor ab gran devocio, que us porte a salvacio. The Song Of The Sybil ( English translation of original Catalan version ) An eternal king will come Dressed in our mortal flesh: He will come from heaven certainly To pass judgement on the century. Before judgement is passed A great sign will show itself: The sun will lose its shine The earth will tremble with fear. After will come mighty thunder A sign of great wrath: In an infernal confusion Lightning and cries will resound. A great fire will come down from heaven In a stink of sulphur And the earth will burn furiously And great terror will afflict people. After will come the terrible signal Of a great earthquake As rocks shatter And mountains collapse. Then no-one will have pieces of gold Silver or riches, And everyone will await The sentence. Death will leave them without a penny, And will crush them all: There will remain only men in tears, And sadness will cover the world. The plains and peaks will be all the same, Good and evil will reach them both, Kings, dukes, counts and barons Will have to account for their actions. And then will come impressively The Son of God omnipotent, He will judge the dead and the living, The good will go to Heaven. Children not yet born Will cry from their mother's wombs, And with the crying say: "Help us, God, omnipotent". Mother of God, pray for us, You, the Mother of sinners, May the sentence be merciful, May Paradise be open to us. You, who listen to everything, Pray God with all devotion, With all your heart and fervour, That we should be saved.
