When Love Was King(originale) |
Once was a kingdom, far far away |
Love was the rule of the day |
Nothing more nothing less |
Than to give your friend your best |
There’s much more story that I could tell |
To make the hardest hearts swell |
This is the story when love was king |
When love was king, do you remember? |
When love was king, when love was king |
I remember when love was king |
He ruled the land, with his fist unfurled |
With open arms for the world |
Of hungry children, first he’d think |
To pull their lives from the brink |
When love was king |
He rescued souls lost in the sea |
In drifting vessel he would hear their plea |
When love was king |
He threw a line before they’d sink |
And gave the thirsty ones a drink |
He told the meek that they should try |
To use the sword to smite the lie |
That being king is for the weak |
When love was king |
I pray the lord these words we seek |
When love was king |
He showed respect for every man |
Regardless of their skin or clan |
Beside him stood his mighty queen |
And equal force wise and keen |
He lifted up the underneath |
And all his wealth he did bequeath |
To those who toiled with out a gain |
SO they would remember his reign |
So seek someplace to call your own |
Right next to this mighty shinning throne |
When love was king |
When love was king |
(traduzione) |
Una volta era un regno, molto lontano |
L'amore era la regola del giorno |
Niente di più, niente di meno |
Che dare il meglio al tuo amico |
C'è molta più storia che potrei raccontare |
Per far gonfiare i cuori più duri |
Questa è la storia di quando l'amore era re |
Quando l'amore era re, ti ricordi? |
Quando l'amore era re, quando l'amore era re |
Ricordo quando l'amore era re |
Governava la terra, con il pugno aperto |
A braccia aperte per il mondo |
Di bambini affamati, prima pensava |
Per tirare le loro vite dall'orlo del baratro |
Quando l'amore era re |
Ha salvato le anime perse nel mare |
Sulla nave alla deriva avrebbe ascoltato la loro richiesta |
Quando l'amore era re |
Ha gettato una lenza prima che affondassero |
E ha dato da bere agli assetati |
Disse ai mansueti che avrebbero dovuto provare |
Usare la spada per punire la menzogna |
Quell'essere re è per i deboli |
Quando l'amore era re |
Prego il Signore queste parole che cerchiamo |
Quando l'amore era re |
Ha mostrato rispetto per ogni uomo |
Indipendentemente dalla loro pelle o dal clan |
Accanto a lui stava la sua potente regina |
E uguale forza saggia e acuta |
Ha sollevato il sotto |
E ha lasciato in eredità tutta la sua ricchezza |
A coloro che hanno faticato senza guadagno |
COSÌ si sarebbero ricordati del suo regno |
Quindi cerca un posto dove chiamare il tuo |
Proprio accanto a questo possente trono splendente |
Quando l'amore era re |
Quando l'amore era re |
