歌词
You saw sagacious solomon
你看见了睿智的所罗门
You know what came of him,
你了解他的起源
对他而言,复杂似是简单
To him complexities seemed plain.
然而他诅咒自己降生的时刻
将一切视为徒劳
He cursed the hour that gave to birth him
多么伟大而智慧的所罗门啊
然而世界并不等待
And saw that everything was vain.
而是很快见证了接下来所发生的
是智慧让他变成了这样
How great and wise was solomon.
一无所有的人多幸运啊
接下来你看见了勇敢的凯撒
The world however did not wait
你知道他成为了什么
在他的一生中人们将他奉若神明
But soon observed what followed on.
也同样将他杀害
当人们举起致命的刀
Its wisdom that had him brought to this state.
他哭喊的多么响亮:你们也是我的子民!
然而世界并不等待
How fortunate the man with none.
而是很快见证了接下来所发生的
是勇气让他变成了这样
You saw courageous caesar next
一无所有的人多幸运啊
你听说过忠诚的苏格拉底
You know what he became.
一个从未说谎的人
人们并未如你所想的感激他
They deified him in his life
代替遵守他尝试制定的法则
人们递给他一杯毒酒
Then had him murdered just the same.
这位人们的尊贵之子多么的诚实啊
然而世界并不等待
And as they raised the fatal knife
而是很快见证了接下来所发生的
是诚实让他变成了这样
How loud he cried: you too my son!
一无所有的人多幸运啊
这里你能看见值得尊重的人们
The world however did not wait
遵守着上帝自己的法则
迄今他仍未注意
But soon observed what followed on.
你们这些人坐在安全而温暖的家中
只能帮助减轻痛苦的需求
Its courage that had brought him to that state.
我们开始得多么合乎道德
然而世界并不等待
How fortunate the man with none.
而是很快见证了接下来所发生的
是对上帝的恐惧让我们变成了这样
You heard of honest socrates
一无所有的人多幸运啊
The man who never lied:
They werent so grateful as youd think
Instead the rulers fixed to have him tried
And handed him the poisoned drink.
How honest was the peoples noble son.
The world however did not wait
But soon observed what followed on.
Its honesty that brought him to that state.
How fortunate the man with none.
Here you can see respectable folk
Keeping to gods own laws.
So far he hasnt taken heed.
You who sit safe and warm indoors
Help to relieve out bitter need.
How virtuously we had begun.
The world however did not wait
But soon observed what followed on.
Its fear of God that brought us to that state.
How fortunate the man with none.
