Latin: Cum puer in rure Thraciae Eram īrātus et inconditus Tum ad Mediōlānum migrāvī Ubi faciem tuam prīmō vīdī Studendō tē procul Artem surridēntis didicī Spectandō quōmodō agis mē exercuī ut Urbānus sim Temptandō decipere Factus sum pudens Volendō ut mentīar Bonus factus sum Bonus factus sum Nunc tam territus sum Salutem dicere non possim Et tam pudens sum Nē salutem dicam Quisque dies cum in Forō tē spectō Virtus mea effundit Temptandō decipere Factus sum pudens Volendō ut mentīar Bonus factus sum Bonus factus sum Bonus factus sum |
English translation: As a boy in rural Thrace I was angry and ill-mannered Then I moved to Mediolanum Where I first saw your face By studying you from a distance I learned the art of smiling By watching how you behave I trained myself to be polite By trying to deceive I ended up shy By wanting to lie I became good I became good Now I'm too scared To say hello And I'm too shy To say hi Each day when I see you in the forum My courage drains away By trying to deceive I ended up shy By wanting to lie I became good I became good I became good |
