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 me! 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 me! 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 bared teeth: (Male Chorus) Miser, miser!...................... Misery me! modo niger..........................Now black et ustus fortiter!..................and roasting fiercely!
