Philharmonia Chorus, Philharmonia Orchestra, Riccardo Muti, Arleen Auger, John Van Kesteren & Jonathan Summers - Orff - Carmina Burana

Carmina Burana: II. Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi: Fortunae plango vulnera (I Lament the Wounds that Fortune Deals)

Fortunae plango vulnera
stillantibus ocellis,
quod sua mihi munera
subtrahit rebellis.
verum est, quod legitur
fronte capillata,
sed plerumque sequitur
Occasio calvata.

In Fortunae solio
sederam elatus,
prosperitatis vario
flore coronatus;
quicquid enim florui
felix et beatus
nunc a summo corrui
gloria privatus.

Fortunae rota volvitur;
descendo minoratus;
alter in altum tollitur;
nimis exaltatus
rex sedet in vertice
caveat ruinam!
nam sub axe legimus
Hecubam reginam.
