Have you heard? That journey's burden
has been lifted from the girl's sad heart.
I delight in the prospect
of spending my birthday in Rome.
Let us all celebrate the occasion,
which comes as a boon, a surprise,
to you, who was least expecting it.
Scis iter ex animo sublatum triste puellae?
natali Romae iam licet esse suo.
Omnibus ille dies nobis natalis agatur,
qui nec opinanti nunc tibi forte venit.
(freely translated from the Latin)
Scis iter ex animo... Sulpicia, 1st century AD
