Carmina Burana: I. O Fortuna

(original)
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,
obumbrata
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,
mecum omnes plangite!
(translation)
O fortune
Like the moon
changeable,
ever growing
waning
hateful life
now it is hard
and then soothes
fancy relaxing
poverty,
power
like ice.
Fate
and empty
you're rolling wheel
bad status,
vain salvation
always fades
overshadowed
and veiled
you plague me too;
now through the game
bare back
I am proposing your guilt.
Fate of salvation
and virtue
now opposite to me
is affected
and defects
always on duty.
In this hour
without delay
the heart beat
by lot
strikes down the brave
All weep with me!
