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!

They need better looking singers. where's britany when you need her?

My Frontier Thesis said...

Good point: also a previously unexplored realm in her career. Oh baby-baby fortuna...

My Frontier Thesis said...

Pepe, try this.

Pepe le Pew said...

Yeah, but now it's the other way around: the girl is a looker but Orff without earplugs - no thank you.

Nobody asks us before they do anything these days.
