karl orff - fortuna imperatrix mundi lyrics
o fortuna
velut luna
statu variabilis,
semper crescis
aut decrescis;
vita detestabilis
nunc obdurat
et tunc curat
ludo mentis aciem,
egestatem,
potestatem
dissolvit ut glaciem.
sors immanis
et inanis,
rota tu volubilis,
status malus,
vana salus
semper dissolubilis,
ob-mbrata
et velata
michi quoque niteris;
nunc per ludum
dorsum nudum
fero tui sceleris.
sors salutis
et virtutis
michi nunc contraria,
est affectus
et defectus
semper in angaria.
hac in hora
sine mora
corde pulsum tangite;
quod per sortem
sternit fortem,
mec-m omnes plangite!
fortune plango vulnera
stillantibus ocellis
quod sua michi munera
subtrahit rebellis.
verum est, quod legitur,
fronte capillata,
sed plerumque sequitur
occasio calvata.
in fortune solio
sederam elatus,
prosperitatis vario
flore coronatus;
quicquid enim florui
felix et beatus,
nunc a summo corrui
gloria privatus.
fortune rota volvitur:
descendo minoratus;
alter in altum tollitur;
nimis exaltatus
rex sedet in vertice
caveat ruinam!
nam sub axe legimus
hecubam reginam.
