Fortuna plango vulnera stillantibus ocellis,
quod sua michi munera subtrahit rebellis.
Verum est, quod legitur, fronte capillata,
sed plerumque sequitur occasio calvata.
En Fortuna solio sederam elatus, prosperitatis
vario flore coronatus; quicquid
enim florui felix et beatus, nunc a
summo corrui gloria privatus.

Lyrics from Carmina Burana – it’s a poem, which is why it’s a little hard to understand.
I bemoan the wounds of Fortune with weeping eyes,
for the gifts she made me she perversely takes away.
It is written in truth, that she has a fine head of hair,
but, when it comes to seizing an opportunity she is bald.
On Fortune’s throne, I used to sit raised up,
crowned with the many-coloured flowers of prosperity;
though I may have flourished, happy and blessed,
now I fall from the peak deprived of glory.
(Translation from the source below)
I started translating it and then I thought – “Say, this has to be an old text…”
