What are the opening lines of the Aeneid in Latin and English?

The first words of the Aeneid in Latin are “Arma virumque cano”. If we translate the words literally and maintain the original word order, this literally says, “Arms man and I sing.” What do you notice here? Latin does not use an article, definite or indefinite. In English, we must say either “a man” or “the man”.
