Terjemahan lagu Coldplay - Viva La Vida

Coldplay - Viva La Vida

I used to rule the world

Dulu kukuasai dunia

Seas would rise when I gave the word

Lautan kan naik bila kuperintahkan

Now in the morning I sweep alone

Kini di pagi hari kusapu sendiri

Sweep the streets I used to own

Kusapu jalanan yang dulu kukuasai

I used to roll the dice

Dulu aku sering berjudi

Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes

Merasakan ketakutan di mata musuhku

Listened as the crowd would sing

Mendengarkan saat orang-orang bernyanyi

Now the old king is dead long live the king

Kini sang raja tua sudah meninggal, hidup raja

One minute I held the key

Kupegang kunci satu menit

Next the walls were closed on me

Selanjutnya dinding-dinding menutupku

And I discovered that my castles stand

Dan kudapati istanaku berdiri

Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

Di atas tiang garam dan tiang pasir

CHORUS 1

I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing

Kudengar bel Yerusalem berdentang

Roman cavalry choirs are singing

Koor kavaleri Romawi bernyanyi

Be my mirror, my sword and shield

Jadilah cerminku, pedangku dan tamengku

Missionaries in a foreign field

Misionari di medan tak dikenal

For some reason I can't explain

Karena beberapa alasan tak bisa kujelaskan

Once you'd gone there was never

Begitu kau pergi tak pernah ada

Never an honest word

Tak pernah ada kata jujur

And that was when I ruled the world

Dan saat itulah kukuasai dunia

It was a wicked and wild wind

Ini angin jahat dan liar

Blew down the doors to let me in

Membuka pintu tuk biarkanku masuk

Shattered windows and the sound of drums

Porak-porandakan jendela dan suara genderang

People couldn't believe what I'd become

Orang tak percaya jadinya diriku kini

Revolutionaries wait

Para revolusioner menunggu

For my head on a silver plate

Kepalaku memakai di pelat perak

Just a puppet on a lonely string

Hanya boneka di tali tipis

Oh who would ever want to be king?

Oh siapa yang ingin jadi raja?

CHORUS 2 (2x)

I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing

Kudengar bel Yerusalem berdentang

Roman cavalry choirs are singing

Koor kavaleri Romawi bernyanyi

Be my mirror, my sword and shield

Jadilah cerminku, pedangku dan tamengku

Missionaries in a foreign field

Misionaris di medan tak dikenal

For some reason I can't explain

Karena beberapa alasan tak bisa kujelaskan

I know St Peter won't call my name

Aku tahu Saint Peter takkan memanggil namaku

Never an honest word

Tak pernah ada kata jujur

But that was when I ruled the world

Tapi saat itulah kukuasi dunia
