Civilisatio |
| |
|
|
| They didn't follow rules |
|
Ezelőtt a háborúban |
| When waging war in days gone by. |
|
Nem követtek semmi elvet, |
| The stronger from the weaker took |
|
Az erősebb a gyengétől |
| All that he could, that pleased his eye. |
|
Amit elvehetett, elvett. |
| |
|
|
| It's not like that now. The world's ruled |
|
Most nem úgy van. A világot |
| By conferences apposite, |
|
Értekezlet igazítja: |
| And if the stronger plays a trick, |
|
S az erősebb ha mi csínyt tesz, |
| He confers and - endorses it. |
|
Összeül és - helybehagyja. |
| |
