Alexandra Burke-Hallelujah (1)
I heard there is a secret chord. I heard that there is a mysterious chord.
David played and God was pleased with him.
But you really don't like music, do you? But you don't care about music, do you?
Well, it's played like this.
Fourth, 54th degree, 5th degree (2)
A minor flat semitone and a major rising semitone are minor flat semitone and major rising semitone.
The frightened king wrote Hallelujah and begged the king to compose music for Hallelujah, but in vain.
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Your faith is firm, but you need proof. Your confidence is firm, but it needs to be tested.
You saw her taking a bath on the roof. You saw her taking a bath on the roof.
Her beauty and moonlight overthrew you, and her beauty will crush you in the moonlight (4)
She tied you to a chair in her kitchen. She tied you to a chair in the kitchen.
She broke your throat and cut your hair. She ruined your throne and cut off your hair (5)
She draws hallelujah from your lips. She draws hallelujah from your lips.
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Honey, I've been here before. I have been here before.
I've seen this room. I've walked this floor. You know I've walked this room.
Before I met you, I lived alone. I lived here alone.
I saw your flag on the marble arch, and then you conquered me (6)
Love is not a March of victory. Cute is not a victory parade.
This is a cold and broken hallelujah. Love is a cold and broken hallelujah.
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Once upon a time, you let me know that you had made me believe.
The real and what is happening under the real existence (7)
But now you'll never show it to me again, will you? But now you won't give it to me, will you?
But remember when I moved in with you? But remember, when I enter you.
The Holy Spirit is with us (8)
Every breath we take is hallelujah. Every breath we take is hallelujah.
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Maybe there's a god on it. Maybe there is a god in heaven.
But everything I learned from love, I learned from love.
How to shoot a man who betrayed you is equivalent to how to kill the man who took you away.
This is not the cry you hear at night. This is not the cry you hear at night.
This is not a person who has seen the light.
This is cold and broken hallelujah. This is cold and broken hallelujah.
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Note 1: Hallelujah: Hebrew transliteration of Hallelujah, meaning "Praise the Lord".
Note 2: "Fourth, fifth": According to the context, it should be the interval relationship. So the translation is "four degrees, five degrees". I think it is meaningless for someone to translate it into "fourth, fifth" and "fourth beat, fifth beat"
Notes 3 and 4: Quoted from the Bible. David, David, was chosen by God as the king of Israel. One night, while wandering on the balcony, he met a very beautiful woman bathing in the moonlight. Upon inquiry, I learned that this charming woman's name is Bethsheba, and she is the wife of Uriah, a minister of David. David couldn't bear the desire to possess Bathsheba, so he took Bathsheba into the palace to sleep with her. Soon Bathsheba was pregnant with David's baby. David was frightened and hurriedly recalled Uriah, who was far away from the front line, under the pretext of giving him a short rest, with the intention of letting Uriah go home and share a room with his wife to cover up the blood relationship of the child in Bathsheba's womb. However, Uriah is a soldier who is loyal to his duty and dedicated to his country. He said to David, "The country is in crisis. How can I bear to go home and have fun with my wife?" Uriah asked David to send himself back to the battlefield. At this time, David followed the trend and negotiated with Joab, the former general, to kill Uriah in battle. After Uriah's death, David welcomed Bathsheba into his harem and took possession of Bathsheba in a proper way.
God was very unhappy when he knew it. He wanted to kill Bathsheba and David's children as punishment. David fasted and lived alone for his children. He cried out to the Lord all day and wrote a repentance poem (Psalm 5 1, David's repentance poem). But god finally let the child die. (For details, see Chapters 12 and 13 of Samuel in the Old Testament. )
From this, we can know the meaning of the first paragraph (David asks God for forgiveness) and the first three sentences of the second paragraph (the scene where David meets Bathsheba). Among them, "inexplicable" I translated as "begging in vain". Because the baffle is in vain and conforms to the above story, I think this translation is very appropriate.
Note 5: Quoted from the Bible. There was a strong man in Israel named Samson. God gave him the ability to tear the lion with his bare hands, which made the Philistines, the enemy of Israel, very afraid. However, Samson had a weakness: God agreed not to cut his hair, and if so, his strength would be lost. Samson fell in love with a Philistine girl named Dalila. The Philistines gave Dalila a lot of money, ordered her to fall in love with Samson and found out why he was so powerful. Samson was seduced by Dalila three times, and the story he made up could get away with it, but in the end he told Dalila his secret. One day, the Philistines cut off Samson's hair while he was sleeping, and Samson's strength disappeared with him. The Philistines blinded him and shut him up in a mill to grind corn. (For details, see Chapters 13 to 16 of Judges in the Old Testament. )
Note 6: "Your flag on the marble arch": I mean conquest here. Although the meaning is appropriate, it remains to be verified.
Note 7: I think it means to love you. The inspiration for translating "real existence" comes from the second song "Another Emotion" in Zhang Qianqian's album "Out-of-Body Experience".
Note 8: The translation of Holy Pigeon into Holy Spirit is the first webpage based on Google search for "Holy Pigeon". (/shnyves/dove _ symbol _ of _ hs.html). There is a saying that "the dove is the symbol of the Holy Spirit, the third in the Trinity, because it is too 3: 16". When Jesus was baptized, just as he came up from the water, suddenly heaven opened for him, and he saw the spirit of God descending like a dove and falling on him. “NRSV。 【 See El greco's Baptism. ]"。
