Viva La Vida


這張專輯全名是
(Viva La Vida Or Death and All His Friends) (生命萬歲或死亡緊隨)
意外的不採用傳說已久的Prospeckt,
而將靈感放諸於墨西哥超現實主義的女畫家
Frida Kahlo的同名畫作[Viva La Vida]
Chris Martin說他欣賞Frida Kahlo大膽與痛苦掙扎的生命精神,
而專輯的封面則採用浪漫主義的Eugene Delacroix 的畫作
[Liberty Leading the People]

I used to rule the world
我曾經統治這個世界
Seas would rise when I gave the word
我一開口 大海就為我升起
Now in the morning I sweep alone
現在,清晨我獨自清掃
Sweep the streets I used to own
清掃著我曾經擁有的街道
I used to roll the dice
我曾經掌握生殺大權
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
體驗著敵人眼睛中的恐懼
Listen as the crowd would sing:
聆聽著 當人群唱著:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
"現在老國王死了,國王萬歲!"
One minute I held the key
前一刻我還是有權有勢的人
Next the walls were closed on me
下一秒鐘卻已深陷囹吾
And I discovered that my castles stand
我發現我那聳立的城堡
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
是建立在用鹽和沙砌成的柱子之上

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
我聽到耶路撒冷的鐘聲響起
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
羅馬騎兵團的歌聲
Be my mirror my sword and shield
成為我的鏡子,我的盾與劍
My missionaries in a foreign field
我在遠方陌生國度的傳教士
For some reason I can't explain
出於某種原因我無法解釋
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
一但你決定開始,那里永遠不會有一句誠實的話語
That was when I ruled the world
那就是我統治這個世界的時刻


It was the wicked and wild wind
這是一個邪惡且野性的狂風
Blew down the doors to let me in.
刮倒了大門讓我進入
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
吹破了窗戶並蓋過了鼓聲
People couldn't believe what I'd become
人們不能相信我將成為什麼

Revolutionaries wait
革命等待著
For my head on a silver plate
為了將我的頭顱盛在銀色的盤子上
Just a puppet on a lonely string
只是一個提線的木偶
Oh who would ever want to be king?
啊誰任何時刻都希望成為國王 I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
我聽到耶路撒冷的鐘聲響起
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
羅馬騎兵唱詩班傳來歌聲
Be my mirror my sword and shield
讓它成為我的鏡子,我的盾與劍
My missionaries in a foreign field
我的傳教士門仍在異國的戰場
For some reason I can't explain
出於某種我無法解釋的原因
I know Saint Peter will call my name
我知道聖人比德將不會呼喚我的名字
Never an honest word
當你在那裡 永遠沒有誠實的話語
But that was when I ruled the world
那就是當我統治這個世界的時候了
ooooo ooooo ooooo oooooo ooooo
(repeat with chorus)
