Pie Jesu domine, dona eis requiem.

Kind Lord Jesus, grant them rest.

Pie Jesu domine, dona eis requiem sempiternam.

Kind Lord Jesus, grant them eternal rest.

Or Complete text of the Andrew Lloyd Webber version:

°Pie Jesu Qui tollis peccata mundi Dona eis requiem

Kind Jesus You, who takes away the sins of the world, Grant them rest.

Agnus dei Qui tollis peccata mundi Dona eis requiem Sempiternam Lamb of God You, who takes away the sins of the world, Grant them rest. Eternal (rest).

It’s also one of the basic movements in Requiem. Sung indeed in Latin.
