Natus in curas
Language: Latin
Natus in curas, homo solis aestu Haurit excelsus calidum laborem, Non opem fessus miseris recusat Nocte quieta. Corporis tendens animisque vires Extimas, nusquam sibi parcet ipse. Blanda vix ellum favet aura sortis Vitaque suavis. Posteri segnes opera fruuntur Denique exhausta memoresque laudant. Iam manus leto gelido solutas Fractaque corda.
