Omnis mundi creatura
Quasi liber et pictura
Nobis est, et speculum.

Nostrae vitae, nostrae mortis
Nostri status, nostrae sortis
Fidele signaculum
Nostrum statum pingit rosa
Nostri status decens glosa
Nostrae vitae lectio;
Quae dum primum mane floret,
Defloratus flos effloret
Vespertino senio.
Nostrae vitae, nostrae mortis
Nostri status, nostrae sortis
Fidele signaculum
Cuius vita Cuius esse
Poena labor et necesse
Vitam morte claudre.
Sic mors vitam, risum luctus
Umbra diem, portum fluctus,
Mane claudit vespere
In nos primum dat insultum
Poena mortis gerens vultum
Labor mortis histio
Nos ptoponit in laborem
Nos assumit in dolorum
Mortis est conclusio
Nostrae vitae, nostrae mortis,
Nostri status, nostrae sortis
Fidele signaculum.
Nostrae vitae, nostrae mortis,
Nostri status, nostrae sortis
Fidele signaculum.
Fidele signaculum.
Fidele signaculum.
“Every creature on earth
resembles a book and a picture,
like looking in a mirror, ×2
Our life, our death
our position in life, our destiny,
faithful symbol.
The rose reflects our position,
a fitting interpretation,
lessons about our life.
While it blooms in the early morning,
its blossoms fade
and petals fall with age.
Our life, our death
our position in life, our destiny,
faithful symbol.
His life, his existence,
his sorrow tribulation and obligation
to end life in death.
Death ends life, sorrow ends laughter
darkness ends daylight, high tide covers the seaport,
morning ends evening.
Mockery drives away the sorrow
worn by the mask of death,
tibulation plays the role of death.
Our first assumption is tribulation,
our second is sorrow,
and then death wins.
Our life, our death
our position in life, our destiny,
faithful symbol. “
