Lirik Lagu Egypt (The Chains Are On) – Dio

In the land of the lost horizon

Where the queen lies dark and cold

And when the stars won’t shine

Then the story’s told

When the world was milk and honey

And the magic was strong and true

Then the strange ones came

And the people knew

That the chains were on

That the chains were on

My, my, my

In the land of no tomorrow

Where you pray just to end each day

And your life just slowly melts away

Each day you hear the sand

As it moves and whispers

Come and sail on my golden sea

Maybe one day you’ll be just like me

And that’s free but still

Your chains are on

Yes, your chains are on

Still, your chains are on

You’ve seen them walking on the water

You’ve seen them flying through the sky

They were frightening in the darkness

They had rainbows in their eyes

When the world was milk and honey

And the magic was strong and true

Then the strange ones came

And the people knew

That the chains were on

That the chains were on

That the chains were on

That the chains were on

Oh my, the chains were on

In the land of the lost horizon

Where the chains are on

In the land of milk and honey

Still, the chains are on

Where the queen lies dark and lonely

Still, her chains are on

And the world was new and magic

But the chains are on

The chains were on, the chains were on

Yeah, the chains were on

The chains were on, the chains were on

Seen them walking on the water

The chains were on

Seen them flying through the sky

My, the chains were on

They were frightening in the darkness

Yes, the chains were on

They had rainbows in their eyes

The chains were on

 

Terjemahan Lirik Lagu Egypt (The Chains Are On) dari Dio

Di tanah cakrawala yang hilang

Di mana sang ratu terbaring gelap dan dingin

Dan saat bintang tak bersinar

Kemudian ceritanya diceritakan

Ketika dunia adalah susu dan madu

Dan sihirnya kuat dan benar

Kemudian yang aneh datang

Dan orang-orang tahu

Bahwa rantai itu menyala

Bahwa rantai itu menyala

Aku, aku, aku

Di tanah tanpa hari esok

Di mana kamu berdoa hanya untuk mengakhiri setiap hari

Dan hidupmu perlahan mencair

Setiap harimu mendengar pasir

Saat ia bergerak dan berbisik

Datang dan berlayar di laut emasku

Mungkin suatu hari nanti kamu akan seperti aku

Dan itu gratis tapi tetap saja

Rantai kamu aktif

Ya, rantai kamu aktif

Tetap saja, rantaimu menyala

Kamu telah melihat mereka berjalan di atas air

Kamu telah melihat mereka terbang di langit

Mereka menakutkan dalam kegelapan

Mereka memiliki pelangi di mata mereka

Ketika dunia adalah susu dan madu

Dan sihirnya kuat dan benar

Kemudian yang aneh datang

Dan orang-orang tahu

Bahwa rantai itu menyala

Bahwa rantai itu menyala

Bahwa rantai itu menyala

Bahwa rantai itu menyala

Ya ampun, rantainya menyala

Di tanah cakrawala yang hilang

Di mana rantai berada

Di negeri susu dan madu

Tetap saja, rantainya menyala

Dimana sang ratu terbaring gelap dan kesepian

Tetap saja, rantainya menyala

Dan dunia itu baru dan ajaib

Tapi rantainya menyala

Rantainya menyala, rantainya menyala

Ya, rantainya terpasang

Rantainya menyala, rantainya menyala

Melihat mereka berjalan di atas air

Rantai itu menyala

Melihat mereka terbang di langit

Ya ampun, rantainya menyala

Mereka menakutkan dalam kegelapan

Ya, rantainya menyala

Mereka memiliki pelangi di mata mereka

Rantai itu menyala
