Water was running, children were running You were running out of time Under the mountain, a golden fountain Were you praying at the Lares shrine?
But ohh, oh your city lies in dust, my friend Ohh, oh, your city lies in dust, my friend
We found you hiding, we found you lying Choking on the dirt and sand Your former glories and all the stories Dragged and washed with eager hands
But ohh, oh your city lies in dust, my friend Ohh, oh your city lies in dust, my friend Your city lies in dust
Water was running, children were running We found you hiding, we found you lying Water was running, children were running We found you hiding, we found you lying
Your city lies in dust, my friend Ohh, oh, your city lies in dust, my friend
Hot and burning in your nostrils Pouring down your gaping mouth Your molten bodies, blanket of cinders Caught in the throes
And ohh, oh, your city lies in dust, my friend Ohh, oh, your city lies in dust, my friend Ohh, oh, your city lies in dust, my friend Ohh, oh, your city lies in dust, my friend Your city lies in dust, my friend Ohh, oh, your city lies in dust, my friend Ohh, oh, your city _____________________________________________ Города во прахе.
Вода бежала, дети бежали - Все старались от судьбы уйти... А под горой фонтан из золота рождался - Богам домашним - Ларам - сейчас молились Вы?
Но, оу-о, ваш город повержен в прах, мой друг... Мы видели, как вы скрывались, как на земле лежали, Задыхаясь от грязи и песка... Все, чем гордились, все, что случилось Смела и стерла жадная рука.
Но, оу-о, ваш город повержен в прах, мой друг... Так горячо и сухо - в твой рот и ноздри Забилась раскаленная зола... Сожженные тела - из пепла покрывало – в агонии застыли Твой город повержен в прах....
