Текст и перевод песни Família Lima - O Fortuna

O Fortuna

O Fortuna
Velut Luna
Statu variabilis,
Semper crescis
Aut decrescis;
Vita detestabilis
Nunc obdurat
Et tunc curat
Ludo mentis aciem,
Egestatem,
Dissolvit ut glaciem

Sors immanis
Et inanis,
Rota tu volubilis,
Status malus,
Vana salus
Semper dissolubílís,
Obumbrata
Etvelata míchí quoque níteris;
Nunc per ludum
Dorsum nudum
Fero tui scelerís.

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!

O Fortuna

O Fortuna
Like the Moon
Inconstant, fickle
Ever increasing
Or decreasing
Detestable life
Now hardens
Then eases
Testing the mind's endurance
Poverty
Dissolves like ice

A cruel and empty
Fate, your spinning wheel
An evil fate
Vain health
Ever fleeting
Overcast
And veiled, you shine
on me too
Now, in jest
I bear your naked
Back for your crime.

The fate of fortune
And virtue
Oppose me now
Prosperity
And decline
Always in slavery
At this hour
Hesitate not
Strike the plucked heart
That through fate
Fells the strong
With me, all weep!
