Гаудеамус - старинный студенческий гимн

Gaudeamus igitur
Juvenes dum sumus
Post jucundum juventutem
Post molestam senectutem
Nos habebit humus. Let us rejoice therefore
While we are young.
After a pleasant youth
After a troublesome old age
The earth will have us.
Ubi sunt qui ante nos
In mundo fuere?
Vadite ad superos
Transite in inferos
Hos si vis videre. Where are they
Who were in the world before us?
You may cross over to heaven
You may go to hell
If you wish to see them.
Vita nostra brevis est
Brevi finietur.
Venit mors velociter
Rapit nos atrociter
Nemini parcetur. Our life is brief
It will be finished shortly.
Death comes quickly
Atrociously, it snatches us away.
No one is spared.
Vivat academia
Vivant professores
Vivat membrum quodlibet
Vivat membra quaelibet
Semper sint in flore. Long live the academy!
Long live the teachers!
Long live each male student!
Long live each female student!
May they always flourish!
Vivant omnes virgines
Faciles, formosae.
Vivant et mulieres
Tenerae amabiles
Bonae laboriosae. Long live all maidens
Easy and beautiful!
Long live mature women also,
Tender and loveable
And full of good labor.
Vivant et republica
et qui illam regit.
Vivat nostra civitas,
Maecenatum caritas
Quae nos hic protegit. Long live the State
And the One who rules it!
Long live our City
And the charity of benefactors
Which protects us here!
Pereat tristitia,
Pereant osores.
Pereat diabolus,
Quivis antiburschius
Atque irrisores.

(vers. C. W. Kindeleben 1781)

Let sadness perish!
Let haters perish!
Let the devil perish!
Let whoever is against our school
Who laughs at it, perish!

Thank you so much for your Marvelous Rendition of Gaudeamus Igitur! In the United States, the tops 7 Women's colleges, all with a Liberal Arts background, often instead of their Alma Mater song we sing THIS at Smith College Convocation (The Fall Semester Season Opener!). Thank you and bless you for sharing this LOVELY version of it. As Liberal Arts Professors in the North East US say, "They are singing OUR SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Mazel tov!

@secrethavenwebde I agree this is the best I've found on Youtube...but is it really all-male?  Listen to the last, extended notes. I could swear that I hear women chorus members chiming in. It's a familiar sound as I've sung in choirs and choruses for many (ugh, very many) years. This is great though, and I also agree they need to be completely blitzed to do this justice -- ha ha.

@shtelle

for one second, it seemed he was dancing to Gaudeamus Igitur :D

[lanzanut]

Really enjoyed this version of a wonderful tune, still prefer the Mario Lanza version from the hollywood film but this was great singing, thank you for posting.

Great!

First and only version here on youtube that comes close to how this song has to be sung:

Powerful, majestic, good voices, and all-male. Those guys are only two things lacking. 1. They are not drunk enough to sing this song, and 2. They don't miss notes.
