Catulli Carmina - Actus II
guitar chords lyrics
VI- IUCUNDUM MEA VITA
iucundum mea vita mihi proponis amorem
hunc nostrum inter nos perpetuumque fore.
di magni. facite ut vere promittere possit.
atque id sincere dicat et ex animo.
ut liceat nobis tota perducere vita
aeternnum hoc sanctae foedus amicitiae.
(You, my life, promise that this love
of ours between us shall be agreeable and last forever.
Great gods, arrange for her to speak the truth,
and to say this sincere and from the bottom of her heart,
so that it is granted us to continue all our life
this treaty of inviolable friendship. )
VII- O MEA LESBIA! DESINE DE QUOQUAM
O mea Lesbia!
this treaty of inviolable friendship. )
VII- O MEA LESBIA! DESINE DE QUOQUAM
O mea Lesbia!
desine de quoquam quicquam bene velle mereri.
aut aliquem fieri posse putare pium.
omnia sunt ingrata. nihil fecisse benigne est.
immo etiam taedet. taedet. obestque magis.
ut mihi quem nemo gravius nec acerbius urget
quam modo qui me unum atque unicum amicum habuit.
omnia sunt ingrata.
(Ah myLesbia!
stop wishing to be entitled to anything from anyone
or thinking that anyone is able to become grateful.
all things are unappreciated,
it is not profitable to have done
anything with kindness, on the contrary
it is tiring and even more harmful;
as it is to me, whom no one distresses more seriously nor more painfully,
than he who holds me as his one and only friend )
