Alternatively, play the last 6 lines blending the note shown with the
next hole down. For example, play -(910)-(910) (89) (89) instead of
-10 -10 9 9 for the «hac in hora» line etc. This sounds best on the
last line of the song, it gives it a fuller, deeper sound. If you use
this technique, be warned that the last note is the exeption to the
rule, just play -8 and nothing else.

English Translation:

O Fortune,
just as the moon
Stands constantly changing,
always increasing
or decreasing;
Detestable life
now difficult
and then easy
Deceptive sharp mind;
poverty
power
it melts them like ice.

Fate�monstrous
and empty,
you whirling wheel,
stand malevolent,
well-being is vain
and always fades to nothing,
shadowed
and veiled
you plague me too;
now through the game,
my bare back
I bring to your villainy.

Fate, in health
and in virtue,
is now against me
driven on
and weighted down,
always enslaved.
So at this hour
without delay
pluck the vibrating string;
since through Fate
strikes down the strong,
everyone weep with me!

Second/Third Verse

The hills are bare now
The autumn leaves lie thick and still
O’er land that is lost now
Which those so dearly held
And stood against him
Proud Edward’s army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again

Those days are passed now
And in the past they must remain
But we can still rise now
And be a nation again
That stood against him
Proud Edward’s army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again

Only been playing for a few months and this is my first tab. Hope its
