Memento Mori [Ateistin kiitos] [English translation]

[Verse 1]

On the cover of my notebook I drew a smiling face

Sketch with the word pair Memento Mori

Picture canonized praise

Irreligious secular glory

[Pre-Chorus]

I remember death

By remembering life

[Chorus]

I thank for the clarity of thought

Thanking frees from hate

On the back cover of my notebook a skeleton in a woodcut1

The slashed scalp says

Memento Vivere

I thank i get to build

I thank i get to laugh

Thanks the listener with a shout

[Chorus]

I thank for the clarity of thought

Thanking frees from hate

I thank the wisdom of the elders

I thank the science and art like gods

[Chorus]

I thank for the clarity of thought

Thanking frees from hate

I thank the wisdom of the elders

I thank the science and art like gods

[Outro]
