revelations (1998 digital remaster)

'o god of earth and altar,“
哦大地與祭壇之神，
bow down and hear our cry,
請躬身聽我們哭訴，
our earthly rulers falter,
現世統治者的懦弱，
our people drift and die,
人民在漂泊中死去，
the walls of gold entomb us,
黃金圍牆埋葬我們，
the swords of scorn divide ,
嘲弄之劍驅逐我們，
take not thy thunder from us,
帶不走這怒斥威嚇，
but take away our pride.'
卻奪走我們的尊嚴。 ”
(g. k. chesterton; english hymnal)（g.k.
切斯特頓：英文頌歌）

just a babe in the black abyss,
如嬰兒陷在黑暗深淵
no reason for a place like this,
如此之境本不應存在
the walls are cold and souls cry out in pain,
靈魂對著冰冷牆壁哭泣
an easy way for the blind to go,
給失明之人找一條便道
a clever path for the fools who know
給愚蠢之人指一條明路
the secret of the hangman - the smile on his lips.
劊子手的秘密- 他唇間的笑意
the light of the blind - youll see,
盲眼人的光明- 你將得見
the venom that tears my spine,
毒汁流淌在我的脊背
the eyes of the nile are opening - youll see.
尼羅河（非洲）之眼已開- 你將得見

she came to me with a serpents kiss,
她上前送我一個毒蛇之吻
as the eye of the sun rose on her lips,
太陽之眼照亮她的紅唇
moonlight catches silver tears i cry ,
月色映著我銀色的淚珠
so we lay in the black embrace,
我們躺下在黑暗中相擁
and the seed is sown in a holy place
將種子播撒在神聖之地
and i watched, and i waited for the dawn.
然後我警戒，等待黎明

the light of the blind - youll see,
盲眼人的光明- 你將得見
the venom that tears my spine,
毒汁流淌在我的脊背
the eyes of the nile are opening - youll see.
尼羅河之眼已開-你將得見

bind all of us together,
讓我們團結起來
ablaze with hope and free,
點燃希望與自由之火
no storm or heavy weather
沒有風暴或什麼鬼天氣
will rock the boatyoull see.
能顛覆這小舟- 你將得見
the time has come to close your eyes
時刻已到閉上雙眼
and still the wind and rain,
感受這風雨飄搖
for the one who will be king
因那即將稱王之人
is the watcher in the ring,
那指環的守護者
it is you.
那就是你
it is you.
那就是你
