Alma Mater in Latin


Anyone know what the words are?

reply

Not the alma mater of the school, but a traditional graduation song.

They only use the first verse:

Gaudeamus igitur
Iuvenes dum sumus.
Post iucundam iuventutem
Post molestam senectutem
Nos habebit humus.

Loosely translates as:

While we're young, let us rejoice,
Singing out in gleeful tones;
After youth's delightful frolic,
And old age (so melancholic!),
Earth will cover our bones.
