Lyrics Talk:Orff Intro
From This Might Be A Wiki
This page says the intro is instrumental, but it is not. The lyrics in Latin are:
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!
Now I got spanked by Wireless Mike about making "spurious contributions" to the Wiki (he didn't know it was me, he was talking to but he did complain about me TO MY FACE), so I'm not going to add it to the lyrics page but come onnnnnnn ppl you don't need to be super intellectual to notice that the music has a choral part in the back groundddddd.
