The Seventh Seal

The Seventh Seal - Scott Walker (斯考特·沃克)[00:00:00]

Anybody seen a knight pass this way[00:00:14]

I saw him playing chess with Death yesterday[00:00:21]

His crusade was a search for God and they say[00:00:29]

It's been a along way to carry on[00:00:35]

Anybody hear of plague in this town[00:00:46]

The town I've left behind was burned to the ground[00:00:52]

A young girl on a stake her face framed in flames cried[00:00:59]

I'm not a witch God knows my name[00:01:07]

The knight he watched with fear[00:01:13]

He needed to know[00:01:17]

He ran where he might feel God's breath[00:01:20]

And in the misty church[00:01:27]

He knelt to confess[00:01:30]

The face within the booth was Mr Death[00:01:34]

My life's a vain pursuit of meaningless smiles[00:01:45]

Why can't God touch me with a sign[00:01:52]

Perhaps there's no one there answered the booth[00:01:59]

And Death hid within his cloak and smiled[00:02:06]

This morning I played chess with Death said the knight[00:02:13]

We played that he might grant me time[00:02:19]

My bishop and my knight will shatter his flanks[00:02:27]

And still I might feel God's heart in mine[00:02:33]

And through confession's grille Death's laughter was heard[00:02:41]

The knight cried No you've cheated me [00:02:47]

But still I'll find a way[00:02:54]

We'll meet once again and once again[00:02:57]

Continue to play[00:03:03]

They met within the woods the knight his squire and friends[00:03:12]

And Death said now the game shall end[00:03:19]

The final move was made[00:03:26]

The knight hung his head[00:03:28]

And said you've won I've nothing left to play[00:03:32]

The minstrel filled with visions sang to his love[00:03:40]

To look against the stormy sky[00:03:46]

The knight his squire and friends[00:03:53]

Their hands held as one[00:03:56]

Solemnly danced toward the dawn[00:04:00]

His hourglass in his hand his scythe by his side[00:04:07]

The master Death he leads them on[00:04:14]

The rain will wash away the tears from their faces[00:04:21]

And as the thunder cracked they were gone[00:04:28]
