¶Lyrics / Text

''Carmina Burana, fol. 1'' 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 / mihi 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!
