Coming from a Finn this might be wrong, but I'd like to have an argument
anyway:
Die Jesu Domine, dona eis requiem
= Jesus, Lord God, give them eternal rest.
Now don't you all start saying NI to me if it isn't right.

Well, a friend who took Latin at an expensive private school came up with
"Oh lord Jesus, give them rest", so you're probably right.
And I'm saying "Ni" to you anyway. Ni!
BTW, did anyone hear Slayer interviewed on Z-Rock a few nights ago? After
a set of songs, they came back on singing the Penis Song!!

The correct title is "Not the Noel Coward song":
(as earlier posted to this group)
PENIS SONG (THE NOT NOEL COWARD SONG)
-------------------------------------
Good evening ladies and gentlemen. Here's a little number I tossed off
recently in the Caribbean.
-
Isn't it awfully nice to have a penis,
Isn't it frightfully good to have a dong?
It's swell to have a stiffy,
It's divine to own a dick,
From the tiniest little tadger,
To the world's biggest prick.
-
So three cheers for your Willy or John Thomas,
Hooray for your one-eyed trouser snake,
Your piece of pork, your wife's best friend,
Your Percy or your cock,
You can wrap it up in ribbons,
You can slip it in your sock,
But don't take it out in public,
Or they will stick you in the dock,
And you won't come back.

As far as I remember, in the book of Meaning Of Life, it says "policy",
not "Percy". Though I could be wrong. Anyone actually got the book to
check it?

Funny. The closing credits to Meaning of Life refer to it as "Penis
Song"...

Well a Percy is another name for a penis so you could well be wrong

Actually, the Latin is "Pie Jesu Domine, Dona eis requiem." It comes from one
of the standard chants, I forget which one, but it's written out in full in
Umberto Eco's book _The Name of the Rose_. I think the "Pie" part means
something like "holy"--it's the root for "pious," but it's not what it means.
The remaining words are as explained in previous posts...

FYI,
Correct line is: "It's a Mister Death or something... he's come about
the reaping."

So I was paraphrasing.
(Great. Now somebody will point out that if I was paraphrasing, I wouldn't
have bothered to carve "Aargh", I'd have just said it.)
Back off! I've got a POINTED STICK!

Now, that sounds more like it.
And a "Concordia domis foris Pax" to you.

No we're not. But hear this:
Go and have fun with a Finn. ;-)

"Pie Jesu Domine, dona eis requiem."
Pie Jesu Domine is easy, that's a vocative. eis requiem WOULD fit in
with "dona" if "dona" were the imperative of "to give" which it isn't.
I forget what is (conveniently) but one possible usage of dona is the
nominative or accusative plural of donum, which means gift.
Oh, the imperative of "to give" is "da" (just remembered that). Maybe
whoever did the chant MEANT "give" and just didn't know his Latin?

The film refers to the Penis song, but the singer is referred to as
Noel Coward (Not the real Noel Coward, of course).

It's the same thing really. Go and check the discussion (concussion?) about
MP's All The Word vs. MP's Just The Words. Ad nauseam. Ad astra. Ad vertising.

True, but I kinda like Bryan's.
Besides, what with some improvisation?

If I'm very much mistaken the correct translation is:
Die Jesu Domine, dona eis requiem = People called Romans go the house.

"dona" does NOT come from "dare" (do, dare, dedi, datus) but from
"DONARE" (dono, donare, donavi, donatus) which actually DOES mean
"give" in the sense of "giving a present", "making a gift".
NI!
