I used to rule the world
我曾经统治这个世界
Seas would rise when I gave the word
海水涨潮当我发出号令
Now in the morning I sweep alone
现在清晨我独自清扫
Sweep the streets I used to own
清扫我曾经拥有的街道
I used to roll the dice
我曾经投掷骰子
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
感觉到敌人眼中的恐惧
Listen as the crowd would sing:
也曾听到谣言中唱:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
"现在老国王死了,国王万岁!"
One minute I held the key
前一分钟我还持有钥匙
Next the walls were closed on me
下一分钟城墙就在我面前紧闭
And I discovered that my castles stand
我发现我那耸立的城堡
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
之上是用盐和沙砌成的柱子
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
我听到耶路撒冷的钟声响起
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
罗马骑兵唱诗班传来歌声
Be my mirror my sword and shield
让它成为我的镜子,我的盾与剑
My missionaries in a foreign field
我的传教士门仍在异国的战场
For some reason I can't explain
出于某种原因我无法解释
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
一但你走了,那里永远不会有一句诚实的话语
That was when I ruled the world
那就是我统治这个世界的时刻
It was the wicked and wild wind
这是一个邪恶且野性的狂风
Blew down the doors to let me in.
刮倒了大门让我进入
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
粉碎的窗户与击鼓的声音
People couldn't believe what I'd become
人们不能相信我将成为什么
Revolutionaries wait
革命的等待
For my head on a silver plate
为了将我的头颅盛在银色的盘子上
Just a puppet on a lonely string
只是在寂寞绳索上的一个木偶
Oh who would ever want to be king?
啊谁真的愿意成为国王
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
我听到耶路撒冷的钟声响起
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
罗马骑兵唱诗班传来歌声
Be my mirror my sword and shield
让它成为我的镜子,我的盾与剑
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain

I know Saint Peter will call my name

Never an honest word

But that was when I ruled the world
但那就是当我通知这个世界的时刻
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
我听到耶路撒冷的钟声响起
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
罗马骑兵唱诗班传来歌声
Be my mirror my sword and shield
