That's the silliest thing I've seen in several days.

I know in general what the lyrics mean (I only have the opening bit fully memorized); what does "everypony" *glare* think it means?

Just the way it was in Excalibur and dozens of film trailers as if it's this heavy dramatic piece, when really it's basically a drinking song about the vagaries of luck. XD

Well, to be fair, it is a fairly epic-sounding piece, and not everyone is conversant with Latin.

Or Google. ;)
