And they bowed down to Hades who made them sweat

Digging and dredging and dragging the depths of the earth

To turn its insides out, singing:

And Hades laid them high and thick
哈迪斯让石头堆得又高又厚
With a million hands that were not his own

And a million feet that fell in line

That stepped in time with Hades' step
只在哈迪斯踏步的时候踏步
And a million minds that were just one mind

Like stones in a row,

Stone by stone,
石头挨着石头
Row by row,
行挨着行
The river rose up, singing:
冥河涨起来了……
La la la la la la la…
唱吧,la la la la la la la…
