Shona Lyrics

Viva La Vida - Shanduro yeShona - Coldplay

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

Viva La Vida - Shanduro yeShona - Coldplay - Shona Lyrics

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice, feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
Now the old King is dead, long live the King
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

[Chorus 1]

I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield

My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you'd gone there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world

[Verse 2]
It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums

People couldn't believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

[Chorus 2]
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word

But that was when I ruled the world

[Outro]
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Ndakashandisa kutonga nyika
Makungwa vaisimuka kana ndikapa shoko

Zvino mangwanani I hope ndoga
Akatsvaira mumigwagwa zvandaimboita neImba
Ndaive vagokungurusa mijenya, kunzwa kutya muvengi wangu meso
Teerera sezvo vazhinji kuti nziyo
Zvino Mambo wekare wakafa, refu kurarama Mambo
Mumwe miniti ndikakoka kiyi
Next mokupera akavharwa pamusoro pangu
Uye ndakazoona kuti nematende yangu kumira
Pamusoro mbiru yemunyu nembiru jecha

[Chorus 1]
Ndinonzwa Jerusarema mabhero a-kurira
Roman vamabhiza choirs vari kuimba
Iva girazi rangu, munondo wangu uye nenhoo

Mamishinari angu yokumwe
Nokuda kwechikonzero Handigoni kutsanangura
mungadai kamwe aenda haana
Never akatendeseka shoko ane
Uye kuti akanga apo ini akatonga nyika

[Verse 2]
Raiva mhepo yakaipa uye nezvikara
Vakaridza pasi masuo kuti neni
Putswa mahwindo uye kurira ngoma
Vanhu vaisagona kuzvitenda ndingada chii kuva
kuipandukira mira
Nokuti musoro wangu uri yesirivha
Just wavanongoshandisa pamusoro yoga tambo

Oh vanoda nokusingaperi kuva mambo?

[Chorus 2]
Ndinonzwa Jerusarema mabhero a-kurira
Roman vamabhiza choirs vari kuimba
Iva girazi rangu, munondo wangu uye nenhoo
Mamishinari angu yokumwe
Nokuda kwechikonzero Handigoni kutsanangura
Ndinoziva Saint Peter haangadzosi zita rangu
Never akatendeseka shoko ane
Asi kuti pandakatanga akatonga nyika

[Outro]
Ndinonzwa Jerusarema mabhero a-kurira

Roman vamabhiza choirs vari kuimba
Iva girazi rangu, munondo wangu uye nenhoo
Mamishinari angu yokumwe
Nokuda kwechikonzero Handigoni kutsanangura
Ndinoziva Saint Peter haangadzosi zita rangu
Never akatendeseka shoko ane
Asi kuti pandakatanga akatonga nyika
