1）
I used to rule the world
大千天下曾由我主宰
Seas would rise when I gave the word
巨浪也曾因我之命澎湃
Now in the morning I sleep alone
而今我却在黎明独自入眠
Sweep the streets I used to own
在曾属于我的大道落寞徘徊
2）
I used to roll the dice
大千天下曾由我主宰
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
尽情品味惊骇在去世敌瞳孔绽开
Listen as the crowd would sing:
欣然谛听百姓高歌叫好
\公众Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!\"大众
“先王亡矣！
”“新王万代！
”
One minute I held the key
此刻我手握权位经脉
Next the walls were closed on me
须臾才知宫墙深似海
And I discovered that my castles stand
恍然创造我的城池
Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand
基底散如盐沙乱似尘埃
3）
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
听那耶路撒冷钟声传来
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海
Be my mirror my sword and shield
担当我的明镜，利剑和盾牌
My missionaries in a foreign field
我的传教士耸立边陲之外
For some reason I can not explain
只因一些缘由我无法释怀
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
一旦你离开这里便不再,不再有刺耳忠言存在
That was when I ruled the world
而这便是我统治的时期
4）
It was the wicked and wild wind
凛冽邪风呼啸袭来
Blew down the doors to let me in.
吹散重门使我深陷阴霾
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
断壁残垣礼崩乐坏
People could not believe what I'd become
众人不敢相信我已当年不再
Revolutionaries Wait
叛逆大军翘首期待
For my head on a silver plate
有朝一日我站上断头台
Just a puppet on a lonely string
恰如傀儡随吊线寂寞摇摆
Oh who would ever want to be king?
悲哉，谁又曾渴望万人膜拜？
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
听那耶路撒冷钟声传来
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海
Be my mirror my sword and shield
担当我的明镜，利剑和盾牌
My missionaries in a foreign field
我的传教士耸立边陲之外
For some reason I can not explain
只因一些缘由我无法释怀
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
我亦知天国之门不会为我洞开
Never an honest word
不再有刺耳忠言存在
But that was when I ruled the world
而这便是我统治的时期
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)
(哦哦哦)
Hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
听那耶路撒冷钟声传来
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海
Be my mirror my sword and shield
担当我的明镜，利剑和盾牌
My missionaries in a foreign field
我的传教士耸立边陲之外
For some reason I can not explain
只因一些缘由我无法释怀
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
我亦知天国之门不会为我洞开
Never an honest word
不再有刺耳忠言存在
But that was when I ruled the world
而这便是我统治的时期
