'Omnis Mundi Creatura' is a single released by electro-medieval/darkwave band Helium Vola. It was released in 2001 by Chrom Records.
The lyrics of the song are entirely in Latin. They are copied from a 12th-century text by the neo-Platonist Alain de Lile:
'Omnis mundi creatura quasi liber et pictura nobis est in speculum: nostrae vitae, nostrae mortis, nostri status, nostrae sortis fidele signaculum.'
[All the world's creatures, as a book and a picture, are to us as a mirror: in it our life, our death, our present condition and our passing are faithfully signified.]
