Olim lacus colueram,

olim pulcher extiteram,

dum cignus ego fueram.

Miser, miser!

modo niger

et ustus fortiter.

Girat, regirat garcifer;

me rogus urit fortiter;

propinat me nunc dapifer.

Miser, miser!

modo niger

et ustus fortiter.

Nunc in scutella iaceo,

et volitare nequeo,

dentes frendentes video:

Miser, miser!

modo niger

et ustus fortiter.
