Corruptible oblivion calls your name,

Eternal generation,

(The final chord is like the sound of a final step into a new world.)

[Verse 2: The Garden of Pain]

(Sound of sprouting seeds - synth.)
Make a garden out of the pain.
(Voice becomes gentle, with a note of hope.)
Every hour is a turning wheel,
(Electric cello plays a cyclical melody, the sound of the turning wheel of time - ambient synth.)
Every breath is a door.
(Voice: with a note of contemplation.)
You can live as the last small echo,
(Sound of fading echo - synth.)
Or become the one they ask for.
(The final chord is like the sound of a door opening.)

[Pre-Chorus: The Fear or the Depth]
Tell me now,
(Electric cello + orchestra, the sound of tense silence - ambient synthesizer.)
What will you keep?

A borrowed fear

Or something deep?

(Instrumental bridge: electric cello + choir + ambient synthesizers, the sound of falling ash - synthesizer.)
Will you still make light?
(Voice: firm, with a note of defiance.)
If the crowd starts shouting,
(Sound of a screaming crowd - synthesizer.)
Will you still stand right?
(Voice becomes more powerful.)
Take the wound,
(Voice: with a note of pain.)
Take the seed,
(Sound of a sprouting seed - synthesizer.)
Take the broken pieces
(Voice: with a note of acceptance.)
And believe.
(The final chord is like the sound of the first faith in a new world.)

[Final Chorus: The Final Choice]
What will be your choice?
(Orchestra + choir + guitars: maximum power. Voice: operatic, like the voice of fate.)
(Your choice)
What will be your choice?
Base instinct or genesis?
(Voice: triumphant.)
New reality, new reality!
(Chorus: "New reality!")
What will be your choice?
(Your choice)
What will be your choice?
Corruptible oblivion or
(Voice: growl, with a note of warning.)
Eternal genesis!

Тот, кто вытащит сей меч из камня,
Тот и есть по праву рождения король над всею землею английскою...

В эпоху мрачных сказов
Во тьме глухих веков
Жил тот, чье возвышений
Благословил сам бог.

О нем расскажут ветры.
О нем споет земля
Баллады о бессмертии
И жизни короля.

Сменяются столетья,
Бегут вперед года,
Но память о героеОсталась навсегда.

Над ним не властно время,
Он жив в людских сердцах.
Его святое имя
Повсюду на устах:

Король Артур.

Из камня меч он вынул,
Решив свою судьбу.
Тогда все поклонились
Ему, как королю.

И с той поры он правил
Британскою землей.
Горячим храбрым сердцем
И чистою душой.

Над ним всегда был ясным
И светлым небосвод.
Был Мерлином построен
Великий Камелот.

И много храбрых воинов
Там встретилось тогда
Под знаменем Артура
У Круглого стола.

Артур,
Артур,
Артур,
Король Артур.

Минуя расстоянье,
Забвенье прошлых дней,
Легенды о героях
Нас делают сильней.

Дыханье стало чаще, сердце рвется из груди.
Бесследно тают в воздухе мгновенья тишины.
Ты слышишь, как ликует возбужденная толпа:
"Идущий на смерть гладиатор, мы приветствуем тебя!"

Сталь громко бьется о щиты в бесчисленных боях.
Повержен тот, кто ощутил хоть на мгновенье страх.
Фортуна любит храбрецов, от смерти сохранит.
Стань самым лучшим среди них, тогда в веках ты будешь не забыт.

Последний станет первым, честь и совесть сохранив,
Вновь обретя свободу, смерть в сраженьях победив.
Рожденный вновь из пепла, словно феникс из огня,
Идущий на смерть гладиатор, мы приветствуем тебя.

Горячая густая кровь стекает по клинку.
Удары в гонг возобновят смертельную игру.
Добудь в сраженьях славу, стань любимчиком толпы,
И вот тогда настанет день, когда, быть может, свободным станешь ты!

Последний станет первым, честь и совесть сохранив,
Вновь обретя свободу, смерть в сраженьях победив.
Рожденный вновь из пепла, словно феникс из огня,
Идущий на смерть гладиатор, мы приветствуем тебя.

В бой опять вступаешь с самою судьбой,
Бесстрашный, непобедимый герой!
Смерть по пятам следует за тобой,
Но ты рожден побеждать под счастливой звездой!

Последний станет первым, честь и совесть сохранив,
Вновь обретя свободу, смерть в сраженьях победив.
Рожденный вновь из пепла, словно феникс из огня,
Идущий на смерть, мы приветствуем тебя.

Однажды на рассвете зазвучит военный рог.
Великий Рим, поверженный, падет у твоих ног.
И громким эхом твое имя воспоют века –
Добывшего свободу и поднявшего восстание раба.
