O Fortuna comes from the cantata Carmina Burana by Carl Orff. First staged in 1937 to huge success, Carmina Burana has since become a staple of the symphonic repertoire and has been used in popular culture ever since. O Fortuna is the most used portion, with its truly epic opening and closing of this large work. This piano arrangement of O Fortuna captures the exciting opening and intense build up that audiences around the world have come to know well.
Original Text (Lyrics):
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!
