原歌词

[00:00.00]	作词 : Brecht, Gerrard, Perry
[00:28.49]	You saw sagacious solomon
[00:35.29]	You know what came of him,
[00:38.35]
[00:42.34]	To him complexities seemed plain.
[00:46.66]
[00:49.28]	He cursed the hour that gave to birth him
[00:52.96]
[00:55.58]	And saw that everything was vain.
[00:59.82]
[01:02.63]	How great and wise was solomon.
[01:07.18]
[01:09.61]	The world however did not wait
[01:13.24]
[01:17.10]	But soon observed what followed on.
[01:20.66]
[01:24.28]	Its wisdom that had him brought to this state.
[01:28.95]
[01:30.64]	How fortunate the man with none.
[01:34.85]
[02:13.41]	You saw courageous caesar next
[02:17.18]
[02:20.36]	You know what he became.
[02:24.12]
[02:27.36]	They deified him in his life
[02:31.19]
[02:34.25]	Then had him murdered just the same.
[02:37.95]
[02:40.57]	And as they raised the fatal knife
[02:45.12]
[02:47.56]	How loud he cried: you too my son!
[02:53.19]
[02:54.56]	The world however did not wait
[02:58.25]
[03:02.05]	But soon observed what followed on.
[03:05.92]
[03:08.98]	Its courage that had brought him to that state.
[03:14.18]
[03:15.55]	How fortunate the man with none.
[03:19.97]
[04:26.36]	You heard of honest socrates
[04:30.12]
[04:33.24]	The man who never lied:
[04:36.87]
[04:40.31]	They werent so grateful as youd think
[04:43.85]
[04:46.97]	Instead the rulers fixed to have him tried
[04:52.10]
[04:53.47]	And handed him the poisoned drink.
[04:57.84]
[05:00.52]	How honest was the peoples noble son.
[05:05.21]
[05:07.58]	The world however did not wait
[05:11.94]
[05:15.00]	But soon observed what followed on.
[05:19.01]
[05:22.26]	Its honesty that brought him to that state.
[05:27.36]
[05:28.54]	How fortunate the man with none.
[05:33.36]
[05:43.53]	Here you can see respectable folk
[05:47.39]
[05:50.51]	Keeping to gods own laws.
[05:54.51]
[05:57.19]	So far he hasnt taken heed.
[06:00.45]
[06:04.56]	You who sit safe and warm indoors
[06:09.34]
[06:10.52]	Help to relieve out bitter need.
[06:15.27]
[06:17.51]	How virtuously we had begun.
[06:21.96]
[06:24.58]	The world however did not wait
[06:28.46]
[06:31.94]	But soon observed what followed on.
[06:35.97]
[06:39.27]	Its fear of God that brought us to that state.
[06:44.38]
[06:45.44]	How fortunate the man with none.

歌词翻译

[00:28.49]	你看见了睿智的所罗门
[00:35.29]	你了解他的起源
[00:42.34]	对他而言，复杂似是简单
[00:49.28]	然而他诅咒自己降生的时刻
[00:55.58]	将一切视为徒劳
[01:02.63]	多么伟大而智慧的所罗门啊
[01:09.61]	然而世界并不等待
[01:17.10]	而是很快见证了接下来所发生的
[01:24.28]	是智慧让他变成了这样
[01:30.64]	一无所有的人多幸运啊
[02:13.41]	接下来你看见了勇敢的凯撒
[02:20.36]	你知道他成为了什么
[02:27.36]	在他的一生中人们将他奉若神明
[02:34.25]	也同样将他杀害
[02:40.57]	当人们举起致命的刀
[02:47.56]	他哭喊的多么响亮：你们也是我的子民！
[02:54.56]	然而世界并不等待
[03:02.05]	而是很快见证了接下来所发生的
[03:08.98]	是勇气让他变成了这样
[03:15.55]	一无所有的人多幸运啊
[04:26.36]	你听说过忠诚的苏格拉底
[04:33.24]	一个从未说谎的人
[04:40.31]	人们并未如你所想的感激他
[04:46.97]	代替遵守他尝试制定的法则
[04:53.47]	人们递给他一杯毒酒
[05:00.52]	这位人们的尊贵之子多么的诚实啊
[05:07.58]	然而世界并不等待
[05:15.00]	而是很快见证了接下来所发生的
[05:22.26]	是诚实让他变成了这样
[05:28.54]	一无所有的人多幸运啊
[05:43.53]	这里你能看见值得尊重的人们
[05:50.51]	遵守着上帝自己的法则
[05:57.19]	迄今他仍未注意
[06:04.56]	你们这些人坐在安全而温暖的家中
[06:10.52]	只能帮助减轻痛苦的需求
[06:17.51]	我们开始得多么合乎道德
[06:24.58]	然而世界并不等待
[06:31.94]	而是很快见证了接下来所发生的
[06:39.27]	是对上帝的恐惧让我们变成了这样
[06:45.44]	一无所有的人多幸运啊
