- O Fortuna, velut luna, statu variabilis. O Fortune, like the moon, always changing.
- 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.
Fate,inhumandevoid of reasonyour wheel turns, rolling darklythe vanity of health - which always fadesshadowed, veilednow thou dost me attackand for your game my naked backis bare to your evil.
