This sounds like a National anthem Pom...
Well, the story of this song is as below:
A.Word.A.Day
with Anu Garg
gaudeamus
PRONUNCIATION:
(gau-di-AHM-uhs)
MEANING:
noun: A convivial gathering or merry-making of students at a college or university.
ETYMOLOGY:
From the students’ song “De Brevitate Vitae” (On the Shortness of Life) whose first word is gaudeamus (let’s rejoice). Earliest documented use: 1823.
USAGE:
“I have apologized for not attending the Royal Society Club, who have a gaudeamus on this day.”
The Journal of Sir Walter Scott; Jan 1826.
So, this lead me to the song. I actually liked it except for the political portion of it. <3 POM
I dont like politicians..they wear to much of a pink glasses..while ruining it. Let's rejoice sounds good, does it mean having fun? Then its a good song:p
