Terjemahan Lirik Johnny Cash - Belshazar

Well the *Bible tells us about a man
Nah, * Alkitab memberitahu kita tentang seorang pria
Who ruled Babylon and all it’s land
Yang memerintah Babel dan semua tanah itu
Around the city he built a wall
Di sekeliling kota ia membangun tembok
And declared that Babylon would never fall
Dan menyatakan bahwa Babel tidak akan pernah jatuh


He had concubines and wives
Dia punya selir dan istri
He called his Babylon “Paradise”
Dia memanggil Babel-nya “Surga”
On his throne he drank and ate
Di atas takhtanya ia minum dan makan
But for Belshazzer it was getting late
Tapi bagi Belshazzer sudah terlambat


Chorus:
Paduan suara:
For he was weighed in the balance and found wanting
Karena dia ditimbang dalam keseimbangan dan menemukan keinginan
His kingdom was divided, couldn’t stand
Kerajaannya terbagi, tidak bisa berdiri
He was weighed in the balance and found wanting
Dia ditimbang dalam keseimbangan dan menemukan keinginan
His houses were built upon the sand
Rumah-rumahnya dibangun di atas pasir
