“Yesterday“ (The Beatles) in Latin - “Heri“ (Beatuli) Latine
Latin Lyrics Below! Audio file mp3 download available to my Patreon supporters.
This translation and performance preserves the original music’s rhythm with corresponding correct Latin rhythm (long and short syllables), and even the rhymes! This is seldom done, but is important because the natural rhythm of Latin is the core of the language (the rhymes, however, are just for fun!). Ut vos hoc opusculum juvet!

Verba Carminis / Latin Lyrics
Ō, herī
omnēs cūrae distābant mihī
at labōrēs sunt mānsūrī
ō, ipse crēdō in hocc herī
Et statim
nōn sum tantus vir quem nōverim
umbrae pendentēs crēscunt sēnsim
ō dī, herī coit statim
Cūr mē rēlīquit,
nēmō scit, nōn dīxit mī
dīxī rem prāvam
jam cupjam uti sit herī
Ō, herī
lūdēbāmus amōre facilī
at nunc volō modo cēlārī
ō, ipse crēdō in hoc herī
Cūr mē rēlīquit,
nēmō scit, nōn dīxit mī
dīxī rem prāvam
jam cupjam uti sit herī
Ō, herī
lūdēbāmus amōre facilī
at nunc volō modo cēlārī
ō, ipse crēdō in hoc herī
Partial literal translation:
Ō, herī
Oh, yesterday
omnēs cūrae distābant mihī
all my cares were far from me
at labōrēs sunt mānsūrī
but my labors are going to stay
ō, ipse crēdō in hocc herī
oh I believe in this “yesterday“
Et statim
and suddenly
nōn sum tantus vir quem nōverim
I’m not the great man whom I knew
umbrae pendentēs crēscunt sēnsim
hanging shadows grow gradually
ō dī, herī coit statim
oh gods, yesterday came together suddenly
Cūr mē rēlīquit,
why she left me
nēmō scit, nōn dīxit mī
know one knows, she didn’t tell me
dīxī rem prāvam
I said something wrong
jam cupjam uti sit herī
now I desired that it be yesterday
Ō, herī
lūdēbāmus amōre facilī
we were playing at easy love
at nunc volō modo cēlārī
and now I just want to be hidden
ō, ipse crēdō in hoc herī
Cūr mē rēlīquit,
nēmō scit, nōn dīxit mī
dīxī rem prāvam
jam cupjam uti sit herī
Ō, herī
lūdēbāmus amōre facilī
at nunc volō modo cēlārī
ō, ipse crēdō in hoc herī
