[00:20.22]	Lo! 'tis a gala night
[00:24.87]	Within the lonesome latter years!
[00:29.83]	An angel throng, bewinged, bedight
[00:34.60]	In veils, and drowned in tears,
[00:40.20]	Sit in a theatre, to see
[00:44.04]	A play of hopes and fears,
[00:50.34]	While the orchestra breathes fitfully
[00:56.77]	The music of the spheres.
[01:21.64]	Mimes, in the form of God on high,
[01:26.50]	Mutter and mumble low,
[01:31.31]	And hither and thither fly -
[01:36.18]	Mere puppets they, who come and go
[01:41.01]	At bidding of vast formless things
[01:45.88]	That shift the scenery to and fro,
[01:51.33]	Flapping from out their Condor wings
[01:58.17]	Invisible Woe!
[02:01.22]	That motley drama - oh, be sure
[02:06.29]	It shall not be forgot!
[02:10.29]	With its Phantom chased for evermore,
[02:14.95]	By a crowd that seize it not,
[02:20.97]	Through a circle that ever returneth in
[02:25.89]	To the self-same spot,
[02:29.64]	And much of Madness, and more of Sin,
[02:35.77]	And Horror the soul of the plot.
[02:40.26]	And much of Madness, and more of Sin,
[02:45.75]	And Horror the soul of the plot.
[03:11.97]	But see, amid the mimic rout
[03:16.27]	A crawling shape intrude!
[03:21.14]	A blood-red thing that writhes from out
[03:26.14]	The scenic solitude!
[03:31.01]	It writhes! - it writhes! - with mortal pangs
[03:35.61]	The mimes become its food,
[03:40.57]	And seraphs sob at vermin fangs
[03:45.55]	In human gore imbued.
[04:15.15]	Out - out are the lights - out all!
[04:19.71]	And, over each quivering form,
[04:24.47]	The curtain, a funeral pall,
[04:29.43]	Comes down with the rush of a storm,
[04:34.14]	While the angels, all pallid and wan,
[04:39.16]	Uprising, unveiling, affirm
[04:43.77]	That the play is the tragedy, "Man,"
[04:48.67]	And its hero the Conqueror Worm.

歌词翻译

[00:20.22]	看！这是个狂欢的晚上，
[00:24.87]	在凄凄凉凉的暮年！
[00:29.83]	有群蝉翼仙子，脸上
[00:34.60]	蒙着轻纱，热泪涟涟，
[00:40.20]	端坐戏院里，观看
[00:44.04]	一出恐惧和希望交织的悲剧，
[00:50.34]	乐队时作时辍地奏出
[00:56.77]	飘飘渺渺的天外仙曲。
[01:21.64]	丑角乔扮凌霄的天帝，
[01:26.50]	咕哝不停，声音低低，
[01:31.31]	飞东飞西地往返无常，
[01:36.18]	只是傀儡，横冲直撞，
[01:41.01]	听凭无形巨掌牵上牵下。
[01:45.88]	无形巨掌瞬息换景，
[01:51.33]	扑扑秃鹰翅膀，飞降
[01:58.17]	灾祸，看不清！
[02:01.22]	这出戏真是五光十色！
[02:06.29]	啊，常记心头。千万莫忘！
[02:10.29]	人群不停追逐“幻影”，
[02:14.95]	伸手捕捉，永远失望，
[02:20.97]	绕圈回旋地兜来转去
[02:25.89]	始终回到同一地方，
[02:29.64]	剧中情节多的是恐惧和罪恶，
[02:35.77]	有的是疯狂。
[02:40.26]	剧中情节多的是恐惧和罪恶，
[02:45.75]	有的是疯狂。
[03:11.97]	看呵，一条横行爬虫
[03:16.27]	闯进欢乐的小丑群中，
[03:21.14]	浑身猩红，直往前冲
[03:26.14]	扭出舞台僻角中！
[03:31.01]	折腾蠢动！一声哀吟，
[03:35.61]	可怜丑角霎时丧身，
[03:40.57]	座上女神泣不成声，
[03:45.55]	蠕虫的毒牙鲜血淋淋。
[04:15.15]	灯火转暗，一一隐熄！
[04:19.71]	好似棺套罩上灵枢，
[04:24.47]	帷幕势比骤雨，
[04:29.43]	倏地落下，
[04:34.14]	脸色刷白，双目茫茫，
[04:39.16]	仙子摘下轻纱，纷纷起身，
[04:43.77]	公认台上悲剧名唤“人生”，
[04:48.67]	主角便是“毒蛊霸王”
