I love this poem...And yesss. i had to memorize it for English..in LATIN
You probably heard the music to this before. This is the music to The Mouse King in the Nutcracker.

"O Fortuna"(Carmina Burana)
by Carl Orff

O Fortune,
like the moon
you are changeable
ever waxing
and waning;
hateful life
first oppresses
and then soothes
as fancy takes it
poverty,
and power
dissolves like ice.

Often great
and empty,
your revolving wheel,
you are malevolent,
well-being is vain
and always fades to nothing,
shadowed
and veiled
you plague me too
now by game,
a lost shirt
I guiltily take because of you.

Fate is against me
in health
and in virtue,
driven on
and weighed down
always enslaved;
In this hour
without delay
pluck the vibrating strings,
since fate,
strikes down the string man:
everyone weep with me

Don't ask me why I like this. Since it is obviously EXTREMELY depressing

Any poem, using my word, "Malevolent" has to be good.

O Sors , amo luna vos es changeable umquam waxing quod waning ; perosus vita primoris gravatus tunc conforto ut somnium takes is paupertas , quod vox distraho amo glacies. Sepius valde quod cassus , vestri volubilis rota , vos es novercalis , puteus - res est sterilis quod usquequaque fades ut nusquam , umbra quod veiled vos vomica mihi quoque iam per venatus , a lost shirt EGO crimen take propter vos. Fortuna est obviam mihi in valetudo quod in rectum , coegi in quod trutino down usquequaque enslaved ; Huic hora continuo pluck vibrating ligamen , utpote fortuna , offendo down ligamen vir : sulum ploro me
