Original text and translations

Italian text   Son fortuna omnipotente   Son regina al' universo,   Se a me piace sia sumerso   Chi non crede al mio talento   Son fortuna omnipotente   Son regina al' universo,   Pero creder el ti bisogna   Esser ben sempre a cavallo   E lassar l'altrui rogna   Per exempio longo e fallo   Se tu prendi questo ballo   Setai grato a nostra gente.

English translation I am omnipotent fortune I am queen of the universe. If it pleases me, let anyone be submerged Who does not believe in my powers. I am omnipotent fortune I am queen of the universe But you must believe. Always be on horseback And leave the trouble of others. For example long and foul. If you take this dance You will be appreciated by our people.
