A Simple Story(original) |
And so the story begins with a great king of enormous wealth and power |
Power so great, it seemed to get the king anything he desired |
Yet, there was one desire which remained unfulfilled |
The king’s desire for immortality |
The king was not so naieve to think that he could live forever |
But wished that he would be eternally remembered |
One by one however, his attempts to be remembered failed |
And his wife bore him a single daughter, and immediately fell ill after her |
birth |
As his wife passed away, he declared he would not love again |
As time passed, his earthly monument showed signs of decay |
Soon afterwards, he too showed signs of life’s corrosion |
So he called forth all of the wise men in his kingdom to each bring their truth |
and their wisdom |
Each, however, failed to stand against refutation |
As time passed, the king began to think that the immortal truth was an |
impossible wish |
So he borded himself in a remote wing of his palace with orders for no one to |
disturb him unless they brought him an answer to his wish |
And so there the king stayed, alone, waiting for death’s innevitable call |
This was until one day a wise man came forth to the isolated king and declared |
This too, in time, shall pass |
(traducción) |
Y así comienza la historia con un gran rey de enorme riqueza y poder. |
Poder tan grande que parecía conseguirle al rey todo lo que deseaba |
Sin embargo, había un deseo que no se cumplió. |
El deseo del rey por la inmortalidad |
El rey no era tan ingenuo para pensar que podría vivir para siempre |
Pero deseaba que fuera recordado eternamente |
Sin embargo, uno por uno, sus intentos de ser recordados fracasaron. |
Y su mujer le dio a luz una sola hija, y al instante enfermó después de su |
nacimiento |
Al fallecer su esposa, declaró que no volvería a amar |
Con el paso del tiempo, su monumento terrenal mostró signos de deterioro. |
Poco después, él también mostró signos de corrosión de la vida. |
Así que llamó a todos los sabios de su reino para que cada uno trajera su verdad |
y su sabiduria |
Sin embargo, ninguno de ellos se opuso a la refutación. |
A medida que pasaba el tiempo, el rey comenzó a pensar que la verdad inmortal era una |
deseo imposible |
Así que se encerró en un ala remota de su palacio con órdenes de que nadie |
molestarlo a menos que le trajeran una respuesta a su deseo |
Y así se quedó el rey, solo, esperando la inevitable llamada de la muerte. |
Esto fue hasta que un día un hombre sabio se acercó al rey aislado y declaró |
Esto también, con el tiempo, pasará |
