Cignus Ustus Cantat Lyrics

Cignus Ustus Cantat by Carl Orff

Olim lacus colueram,
olim pulcher extiteram,
dum cignus ego fueram.
(Male chorus)
Miser, miser!
modo niger
et ustus fortiter!

(Tenor)
Girat, regirat garcifer;
me rogus urit fortiter;
propinat me nunc dapifer,

(Male Chorus)
Miser, miser!
modo niger
et ustus fortiter!

(Tenor)
Nunc in scutella iaceo,
et volitare nequeo
dentes frendentes video:

(Male Chorus)
Miser, miser!
modo niger
et ustus fortiter!
