Viva La Vida
I used to rule the world
大千世界曾由我主宰
Seas would rise when I gave the word
巨浪也曾因我之命澎湃
Now in the morning I sweep alone
如今我清晨獨掃
Sweep the streets I used to own
清掃我曾經擁有的街道
I used to roll the dice
凡人生死曾由我主宰
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
盡情品味驚恐在死敵瞳孔綻開
Listen as the crowd would sing:
聽人群高唱
'Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!'
先王亡矣!新王萬代! ”
One minute I held the key
此刻我手握權位經脈
Next the walls were closed on me
深牆遂將我緊閉
And I discovered that my castles stand
恍然發現我的城池
Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand
基底散如鹽沙,亂似塵埃
I hear Jerusalem's bell's ringing
聽那耶路撒冷鐘聲傳來
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
羅馬騎兵歌聲震徹山海
Be my mirror my sword and shield
擔當我的明鏡,利劍和盾牌
My missionaries in a foreign field
我的傳教士屹立邊疆之外
For some reason I can not explain
只因一些緣由我無法釋懷
Once you know there was never, never an honest word
一旦你離開這里便不再,不再有逆耳忠言存在
That was when I ruled the world
凜冽邪風呼嘯襲來
It was the wicked and wild wind
吹散重門使我深陷陰霾
Blew down the doors to let me in.
斷壁殘垣,禮崩樂壞
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
世人不敢相信我已當年不再
People could not believe what I'd become
起義大軍翹首期待
Revolutionaries Wait
有朝一日我站上斷頭台
For my head on a silver plate
恰如傀儡隨吊線寂寞搖擺
Just a puppet on a lonely string
悲哉,誰又曾渴望萬人膜拜?
Oh who would ever want to be king?
聽那耶路撒冷鐘聲傳來
I hear Jerusalem's bell's ringing
羅馬騎兵歌聲震徹山海
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
擔當我的明鏡,利劍和盾牌
Be my mirror my sword and shield
我的傳教士屹立邊疆之外
My missionaries in a foreign field
只因一些緣由我無法釋懷
For some reason I can not explain
我亦知天堂之門不會為我敞開
I know Saint Peter will call my name
不再有逆耳忠言存在
Never an honest word
但這卻是我統治的時代
But that was when I ruled the world
喔~~~~~~
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)
聽那耶路撒冷鐘聲傳來
Hear Jerusalem's bell's ringing
羅馬騎兵歌聲震徹山海
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
擔當我的明鏡,利劍和盾牌
Be my mirror my sword and shield
我的傳教士屹立邊疆之外
My missionaries in a foreign field
只因一些緣由我無法釋懷
For some reason I can not explain
我亦知天堂之門不會為我敞開
I know Saint Peter won 't call my name
不再有逆耳忠言存在
Never an honest word
但這卻是我統治的時代
But that was when I ruled the world
喔~~~~~~
