Letra de Persepolis

Flutes and pipes play a drunken rhyme Entertaining the soldiers in the palace Naked bodies, female slaves from Asia Dance with promise for a night of pleasure Mouths smell wine, the feast is going wild Victorious and glorious, the men exalt their king As in a fevered dream, Thais is entering And she provokes him t do a special deed You have conquered the capital of orient Display your power and make your enemies weep Destroy their pride, the jewel of the desert As they once destroyed our temples for their king oi flóges ankáliasan tous xýlinous toíchous san peinasména fídia katavrochthízontas sto pérasma tous cheirógrafa kai ypoleímmata ton palaión chrónon i persépoli klaíei, enó oi flóges apomakrýnoun tis sárkes tis Burn this city to the ground Take a torch and spread the fire Persepolis, now a pile of dust A blackened carcass, a land of ash Persepolis, you lost your crown Persepolis, burned to the ground Consumed by hate, ablaze by pride Persepolis, naked as the sand Persepolis You lost your crown Persepolis Burned to the ground Burn this city to the ground Take a torch and spread the fire
