June 09 Viva la VidaViva La Vida是Coldplay 新专辑的主打歌。第一次看这个MV是Apple的广告,黑色的剪影,让人浮想联翩。我最喜欢的British Rock的旋律,够硬,够酷。仔细听了一下歌词,发觉这首歌给我的惊喜,远不止歌曲本身。
Viva la Vida在西班牙中的意思是:生命万岁。这首歌描写的主人公是波旁王朝的查理十世。整首歌写的霸气十足,让我热血沸腾:
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word Now in the morning I sleep alone Sweep the streets I used to own 我曾经执掌世间 我号令,大海就为我升起 在清晨,我独自睡眠 打扫我曾统治的街道 I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy’s eyes Listen as the crowd would sing: “Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!” 我从前掷动骰子 在敌人的眼睛中我读出了深深的恐惧 听到的人群高声合唱: “现在老国王死了!万岁国王” ! One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me And I discovered that my castles stand Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand 一分钟前我掌管着城门的钥匙 下一秒城墙对我封闭 我发现我的城堡矗立在 沙子和盐粒的支柱上 II hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Be my mirror my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can’t explain I know Saint Peter won’t call my name Never an honest word But that was when I ruled the world (Ohhh) 我听到耶路撒冷的钟声响起 罗马骑兵团在高歌 歌声变成我的镜子,我的剑和盾牌 我的传教士在异国他乡 出于某种原因我无法解释 我知道圣皮特不会呼喊我的名字
当你在那里得不到一个诚实的字 这就是我统治世界的时候了 ( ohhh ) It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in. Shattered windows and the sound of drums People couldn’t believe what I’d become 这是邪恶的而狂野的风 吹落大门,让我进去 破碎的窗户和鼓声 人们不能相信我将成为什么 Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate Just a puppet on a lonely string Oh who would ever want to be king? 革命家等待 将我的头颅放在银碟上 只是一个提线木偶 |
