A lady with a violin playing to the seals
Hearken to the sound of calling

Who tied my hands to
the wheel?
the zodiac turns over me
(Come to me)
somewhere there my fate revealed
I hear but how will I see

I tied myself to the wheel
the winds talk to my sails not me
(come to me)
somewhere there my fate revealed
I hear but how will I see

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 deffectus
semper in angaria.
Hac in hora
sine mora
corde pulsum tangite;
quod per sortem
sternit fortem,
mecum omnes plangite!
