Ars Moriendi Lyrics
He who hears in the vast silence
He who wafts on the red wind
"In extremis"
He who leaps across the precipice
He who steals pearls from the ashes
"Ride si sapis"
'Ave atque vale'
I shall rise again
Bardo of the flesh
So feast on me
All my bones are laughing
As you're dancing on my grave
'Ave atque vale'
"Ars Moriendi" i think translated from Latin means "the art of dieing"
yes, ars moriendi is translated to "the art of dying," and it comes from texts that were supposed to tell a person how to die properly, or to die well (according to christian belief during that time).
this song is amazing! I love California!
I'll just also add, 'Ave atque vale' translates from Latin to "hail, brother, farewell".
ride si sapis - laugh if you are wise, one of my favorite quotes
everyone here should read bunglefever.com, great info on the lyrics
tiny little snippet of information: 'In Extremis' means 'at the very point of death'. obviously the song meaning is clear, just thought if anyone wanted to know a bit more latin...
what do "Ride si sapis" and 'Ave atque vale' mean
