lululu...
Lululu...
听那雷鸣般的声音
仅用喉舌便可以锈蚀一切刀剑
O for a voice like thunder,
可是当肺腑掀起狂啸的地震
and a tongue to drown the throat of war!
携手在疯狂中扭曲虬结的灵魂
When the senses are shaken,
谁能阻止？
and the soul is driven to madness,
当被压迫者凄楚的魂灵
Who can stand?
在浑浊恶怒的天地间揭竿而起
When the souls of the oppressed
谁可劝解？
Fight in the troubled air that rages,
那复仇的飓风吹自上帝的王座
Who can stand?
于是就在神灵眉骨阴沉的寰宇之下
When the whirlwind of fury comes from the throne of God
流离的民族重新回到共同的堡垒
When the frowns of his countenance
这时，谁能反抗？
Drive the nations together,
当罪孽巨大的羽翼在战场上鼓起湍流
Who can stand?
世界上所有的船帆都在死亡的潮汐中高扬
When Sin claps his broad wings over the battle,
当海蓝色的魂灵变成永不熄灭的邪火
And sails rejoicing in the flood of Death;
地狱中的魔鬼为新添的荒冢举杯同庆
When souls are torn to everlasting fire,
啊，谁能忍受？
And fiends of Hell rejoice upon the slain,
谁敢指责这一切背后的主使
O who can stand?
向上帝的宝座吐下质问的唾液
O who hath caused this?
可是啊！正是它，至高无上的上帝，用它纤尘不染的双手
O who can answer at the throne of God?
生造出脏污的炼狱
The Kings and Nobles of the Land have done it!
结束
Hear it not, Heaven, thy Ministers have done it!
