#AIMER

[marooncircus]

Be moved to tears, look down on me, tell me how pitiful I am

[vhscorp]

Je veux des câlins, je veux des caresses, je veux des baisers et de la tendresse, je veux qu’on m’enlace et puis qu’on m’embrasse, je veux être aimé, être convoité, je veux qu’on me donne l’ardeur d’exister, le désir de vivre et l’envie d’aimer…

Amāre (Aimer) - Latin Translation

A/N: Guess who stumbled upon a Latin grammar textbook in her local library? Yeah, this took me awhile because I had some options. There was “Amoris pulchritudo” (The beauty of love), which would have been badass. There was also “Amor est pulcherrimus” (To love is the most beautiful), very close to the French. But I realized quickly that any starter word more than two syllables long would be murder, and I’m a stickler for accent stress. Hence, I took advantage of Latin’s syntactical flexibility. At least I got to keep the infinitive. Hope you enjoy!

Amāre (Aimer)

Romeo Pulcer est bene amāre Est ad summum surgere Et alas maiesti tangere Pulcer est bene amāre

Juliette Pulcer est magnē amāre Vīvens gloriam manēre Et in cor ignis ardēre Pulcer est magnē amāre

Both Amor est potentissimus Nobis optimum dāre Ama, et in spei vīve Ama ultra timorem

Chorus Pulcer est bene amāre Est ad summum surgere Et alas maiesti tangere Pulcer est bene amāre

Pulcer est magnē amāre Vivens gloriam manēre Et in cor ignis ardēre Pulcer est magnē amāre

Chorus (+ Juliette) Amor in noctem ardet (In noctem is ardet) Amor pretium habet (Amor pretium habet) Etiamsi nōs consūmeret Amor in nōs vīveret

Chorus (+ Romeo) Pulcer est bene amāre (Pulcer est amāre) Est ad summum surgere (Ad summum volāre) Et alas maiesti tangere Pulcer est bene amāre

Semper…

Chorus (+ Romeo) It is beautiful to love well (It is beautiful to love) It is to rise to the highest (To fly to the highest) And to touch the wings of majesty It is beautiful to love well
