Translation of the song lyrics The Student Prince: VIII. Gaudeamus igitur - Mario Lanza, Lee Sweetland, Lauritz Melchior

The Student Prince: VIII. Gaudeamus igitur (original)

Gaudeamus igitur
Juvenes dum sumus.
Gaudeamus igitur
Juvenes dum sumus.
Post jucundam juventutem
Post molestam senectutem
Nos habebit humus.
Nos habebit humus.
Vita nostra brevis est
Brevi finietur.
Vita nostra brevis est
Brevi finietur.
Venit mors velociter
Rapit nos atrociter
Nemini parcetur.
Nemini parcetur.
Vivant omnes virgines
Faciles, formosae.
Vivant omnes virgines
Faciles, formosae.
Vivant et mulieres
Tenerae amabiles
Bonae laboriosae.
Bonae laboriosae.
Vivat academia!
Vivant professores!
Vivat academia!
Vivant professores!
Vivat membrum quodlibet
Vivant membra quaelibet
Semper sint in flore.
Semper sint in flore.

The Student Prince: VIII. Gaudeamus igitur (translation)

Therefore let us rejoice
While we are young.
Therefore let us rejoice
While we are young.
After the pleasant youth
After a troublesome old age
We have ground.
We have ground.
Our life is short
It will end soon.
Our life is short
It will end soon.
Death comes quickly
He snatches us brutally
No one is spared.
No one is spared.
Long live all virgins
Easy and beautiful.
Long live all virgins
Easy and beautiful.
Long live and women
Lovely Tender
Good and hardworking.
Good and hardworking.
Long live the academy!
Long live the professors!
Long live the academy!
Long live the professors!
Long live the graduates
Long live any members
They are always in bloom.
They are always in bloom.
