viva la vida的歌词

Answer 1

　　Viva La Vida 生命万岁
　　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 sleep alone 而今我却在黎明独自入眠
　　Sweep the streets I used to own 在曾属于我的大道落寞徘徊
　　I used to roll the dice 凡人生死曾由我主宰
　　Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes 我可以尽情品味惊恐在死敌瞳孔绽开
　　Listen as the crowd would sing: 欣然倾听愚民高歌喝彩：
　　"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!" “先王亡矣！新王万代！”
　　One minute I held the key 上一秒我尚且手握权位经脉
　　Next the walls were closed on me 转瞬才知宫墙深似海
　　And I discovered that my castles stand 恍然发现我的城池
　　Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand 基底散如盐沙，乱似尘埃
　　I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing 听那耶路撒冷钟声传来
　　Roman Cavalry choirs are singing 罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海
　　Be my mirror my sword and shield “我异疆的传教士啊
　　My missionaries in a foreign field 来担当我的明镜，宝剑与盾牌”
　　For some reason I can't explain 其中缘由我无法言说
　　Once you go there was never, 自你离去，
　　never an honest word 逆耳忠言便不复存在
　　That was when I ruled the world 而这便是我统治的时代
　　It was the wicked and wild wind 凛冽邪风呼啸袭来
　　Blew down the doors to let me in 吹散重门使我深陷阴霾
　　Shattered windows and the sound of drums 断壁残垣礼崩乐坏
　　People couldn't believe what I'd become 谁人猜想到我的最终下场
　　Revolutionaries wait 起义大军正殷切盼望有朝一日我站上断头台
　　For my head on a silver plate 我不过是个傀儡
　　Just a puppet on a lonely string 随吊线寂寞摇摆
　　Oh who would ever want to be king? 呜呼，谁又曾渴望万人膜拜？
　　I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing 听那耶路撒冷钟声传来
　　Roman Cavalry choirs are singing 罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海
　　Be my mirror my sword and shield ”我异疆的传教士啊
　　My missionaries in a foreign field 来担当我的明镜，宝剑与盾牌“
　　For some reason I can't explain 其中缘由我无法言说
　　I know Saint Peter won't call my name 我亦知天堂之门不会为我敞开
　　Never an honest word 逆耳忠言从未存在
　　But that was when I ruled the world 但这却是我统治的时代

生命万岁
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
大千世界曾由我主宰
巨浪也曾因我之命澎湃
而今我却在黎明独自入眠
在曾属于我的大道落寞徘徊
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

基底散如盐沙乱似尘埃
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
听那耶路撒冷钟声传来
罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海

我的传教士屹立边疆之外
For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never,
never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world
只因一些缘由我无法释怀
一旦你离开这里便不再，

而这便是我统治的时代
It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become
凛冽邪风呼啸袭来
吹散重门使我深陷阴霾
断壁残垣礼崩乐坏

For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

有朝一日我站上断头台

悲哉，谁又曾渴望万人膜拜？

Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
