(Tenor):
Olim lacus colueram, Once I lived on lakes
olim pulcher extiteram, once I looked beautiful
dum cignus ego fueram. when I was a swan
(Male chorus):
Miser, miser! Misery! Misery!
modo niger now black
et ustus fortiter! and roasting fiercely!
(Tenor):
Girat, regirat garcifer; the servant is turning me on the spit
me rogus urit fortiter; I am burning fiercely on the pyre
propinat me nunc dapifer, the steward now serves me up
(Male chorus):
Miser, miser! Misery! Misery!
modo niger now black
et ustus fortiter! and roasting fiercely!
(Tenor):
Nunc in scutella iaceo, now I lie on a plate
et volitare nequeo and cannot fly anymore
dentes frendentes video: I see bare teeth
(Male chorus):
Miser, miser! Misery! Misery!
modo niger now black
et ustus fortiter! and roasting fiercely!
