In trutina (from "Carmina Burana") Songtext
von Hayley Westenra
In trutina (from "Carmina Burana") Songtext
In trutina mentis dubia
Fluctuant contraria
Lascivus amor et pudicitia.
Sed eligo quod video
Collum iugo prebeo;
Ad iugum tamen suave transeo
(Translation) In the wavering balance of my feelings
Set against each other
Lascivious love and modesty.
But i choose what i see,
And submit my neck to the yoke;
I yield to the sweet yoke.
Fluctuant contraria
Lascivus amor et pudicitia.
Sed eligo quod video
Collum iugo prebeo;
Ad iugum tamen suave transeo
(Translation) In the wavering balance of my feelings
Set against each other
Lascivious love and modesty.
But i choose what i see,
And submit my neck to the yoke;
I yield to the sweet yoke.
