浑河边看鱼的猫叔:《Viva La Vida》生命万岁
I used to rule the world
我曾是这世界的王
Seas would rise when I gave the word
海浪升起,只因我的旨意
Now in the morning I sleep alone
如今,我在清晨独自入眠
Sweep the streets I used to own
清扫那曾属于我的康庄大道
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
我听见耶路撒冷传来洪亮的钟声
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
罗马骑兵的唱诗班正在吟诵
Be my mirror my sword and shield
作为我的明镜,我的剑和盾
My missionaries in a foreign field
我的布道者们远涉异邦
For some reason I can't explain
他们的使命我无法言明
Once you gone there was never'
自从你离开之后,就从未有过
Never an honest word
从未有过一丝真言
That was when I ruled the world
那就是我统治这世界的年月
I used to roll the dice
我曾主宰大千世界
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
洞察死敌眼神里隐藏的恐惧
Listen as the crowd would sing:
听那人群高呼:
"Now the old king is dead
先王已逝
Long live the king"
吾王万岁
One minute I held the key
曾几何时,我权柄在握
Next the walls were closed on me
转瞬却身陷囹圄
And I discovered that my castles stand
最终发现我那盖世的宏图伟业
Upon pillars of salt'pillars of sand
只是一座虚无缥缈的空中楼阁
