Xanadu by Rush
Lyrics & Translation
English
'To seek the sacred river Alph
To walk the caves of ice
To break my fast on honeydew
And drink the milk of Paradise...'
I had heard the whispered tales of immortality
The deepest mystery
From an ancient book I took a clue
I scaled the frozen mountain tops of eastern lands unknown
Time and Man alone
Searching for the lost Xanadu
Xanadu
To stand within the Pleasure Dome
Decreed by Kublai Khan
To taste anew the fruits of life
The last immortal man
To find the sacred river Alph
To walk the caves of ice
Oh, I will dine on honeydew
And drink the milk of Paradise
Oh, paradise!
A thousand years have come and gone but time has passed me by
Stars stopped in the sky
Frozen in an everlasting view
Waiting for the world to end, weary of the night
Praying for the light
Prison of the lost
Xanadu
Xanadu
Held within the Pleasure Dome
Decreed by Kublai Khan
To taste my bitter triumph
As a mad immortal man
Nevermore shall I return
Escape these caves of ice
For I have dined on honeydew
And drunk the milk of Paradise
Whoa, is it paradise?

Xanadu (traducción LyricVerse Team)
'Buscar el sagrado río Alph
Caminar por las cuevas de hielo
Romper mi ayuno con melón
Y beber la leche del Paraíso...'
Había oído los susurros de la inmortalidad
El misterio más profundo
De un libro antiguo tomé una pista
Escalé las cumbres heladas de tierras orientales desconocidas
El Tiempo y el Hombre solos
Buscando el perdido Xanadú
Xanadú
Estar dentro de la Cúpula del Placer
Decretada por Kublai Khan
Para saborear de nuevo los frutos de la vida
El último hombre inmortal
Encontrar el sagrado río Alph
Caminar por las cuevas de hielo
Oh, cenaré con melón
Y beberé la leche del Paraíso
¡Oh, paraíso!
Mil años han pasado pero el tiempo me ha dejado atrás
Las estrellas se detuvieron en el cielo
Congeladas en una vista eterna
Esperando el fin del mundo, cansado de la noche
Rezando por la luz
Prisión del perdido
Xanadú
Xanadú
Retenido dentro de la Cúpula del Placer
Decretada por Kublai Khan
Para saborear mi amargo triunfo
Como un hombre inmortal loco
Nunca más regresaré
Escapar de estas cuevas de hielo
Porque he cenado con melón
Y he bebido la leche del Paraíso
¿Whoa, es el paraíso?
