Penn Masala - Viva la vida-jashn-e-bahara [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

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

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!"

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

I 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
Once you go there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world

Kehne Ko Jashan-E-Bahara Hai
Ishq Yeh Dekhke Hairaan Hai(X2)

Phool Se Khusboo Khafa Khafa Hai Gulsan Mein
Chupa Hai Koi Ranj Fiza Ki Chilman Mein

Sare Sehmein Nazare Hain
Soye Soye Vaqt Ke Dhare Hain
Aur Dil Mein Koi Khoyi Si Baatein Hain

Kehne Ko Jashan-E-Bahara Hai
Ishq Yeh Dekhke Hairaan Hai (X2)

Phool Se Khusboo Khafa Khafa Hai Gulsan Mein
Chupa Hai Koi Ranj Fiza Ki Chilman Mein

Chorus
I 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(X2)
