OKAY SO I WAS TRANSLATING HORACE THE OTHER DAY AND CAME ACROSS THIS (FAIRLY FAMOUS) VERSE:

NUNC EST BIBIENDUM, NUNC PEDE LIBEM
PULSANDA TELLUS, NUNC SALIARIBUS
ORNARE PULVINAR DEORUM
TEMPUS ERAT DAPIBUS, SODALES.

WHICH, TRANSLATED VERY, VERY LOOSELY (AND POORLY, SINCE IT'S BY ME) MEANS:

NOW IS THE TIME FOR DRINKING, NOW FOR A FREELY DANCING FOOT
STRIKING THE EARTH REPEATEDLY; NOW IS THE TIME
TO HONOR THE SEAT OF THE GODS,
A TIME FOR FEASTING, MY FRIENDS.

SO... PARTY AT HUECO MUNDO, ANYONE? XD
