Hilares sumus

Hi, just returned from the medieval congress at Kalamazoo, where I
picked up Latin versions of the Cat in the Hat and the Grinch to add to
the Latin versions I already had of Maria Poppina and Winnie Ille Pu.
Also, a small Latin songbook; thought I should share with you the
following immortal translation of a song we all know:
Hilares sumus (3x)
Laetissimi!
Omnes cantemus nunc (3x)
Iubilemus nunc!
Laeta, laeta fratres,
Corda laeta habeamus (3x)
Corcula sint (2x)
Hilara nostra!
You all know what it is, don't you?
Cheers, Judith
(other titles in the collection include "Cum avulo Sloop John B", "Filia
Clementinula","Actumst de te, Tom Dooley" and "Est fissura in hama,
Elisa, Elisa".)
