Statu Variabilis

Hi, Sme. Thank you for reading my blog.

I need to learn the lyrics for Carl Orff's O Fortuna, the opening of his masterpiece Carmina Burana. Within a week. I hate learning latin lyrics. They don't make sense. Like last year, we learnt Shubert's messe no. 6 in E sharp minor. 95 pages of notes and latin lyrics.
But I mean, we didn't have to learn the lyrics by heart like we do now.

O fortuna, velut luna, statu variabilis.



Just look at those lyrics. They make so little sense even when you know what they mean. Fuck this shit, I'm gonna watch Star Wars.
