In the balance

Carmina Burana

In truitina

In trutina mentis dubia
fluctuant contraria
lascivus amor et pudicitia.
Sed eligo quod video,
collum iugo prebeo:
ad iugum tamen suave transeo.

In the balance

In the wavering balance of my feelings
contrary things contend
lustful love and modesty.
But I choose what I see,
submitting my neck to the yoke;
I yield to the sweet yoke.
