Translation of the song lyrics Quid Agam - Corvus Corax, Ingeborg Schöpf, Klaus Lothar Peters

Quid Agam (original)

Mundi delicatio dulcis est et grata
Eius conversatio suavis et ornata
Ecce merces optime conspice nitorem!
Hec tibi conveniunt ad vultus decorum
Mundi sunt delicie, quibus estuare
Volo nec lasciviam eius devitare
Hec sunt odorifere qua si comprobaris
Corporis flagrantiam omnem superabis
Heu, vita preterita, vita plena malis
Luxus turpitudinis, fons exitialis
Heu, quid agam misera, plena peccatorum
Que polluta palleo sorde vitiorum!
Pro mundano gaudio vitam terminabo
Bonis temporalibus ego militabo
Hoc ungentum si multum cupitis
Unum auri talentum dabitis
Nil curans de ceteris corpus procurabo
Variis coloribus illud perornabo
Aliter nusquam portabitis
Optimum est, optimum est

Quid Agam (translation)

The delight of the world is sweet and pleasing
His behavior is sweet and beautiful
Look, look in the best premium polish!
You agree to this look handsome
They are the world's favorites to be burning
I will not avoid his wantonness
These are the scents by which you will be approved
You will conquer every blaze of the body
Alas, past life, life full of evil
The luxury of shame, the source of death
Alas, what can I do, miserable, full of sinners?
Who has been polluted with the bloated filth of vice!
I will end my life for worldly joy
I will fight for temporal goods
This ointment if you desire
You will give one talent of gold
I'll take care of the rest of the body
I will paint it in a variety of colors
otherwise you will never bear
It is the best, it is the best
