[00:00.00] 作词 : Benny Andersson/Björn Ulvaeus/Tim Rice[00:00.00] 作曲 : Benny Andersson/Björn Ulvaeus/Tim Rice[00:00.00]The Story of chess[00:01.00][01:13.00][01:13.00]Each game of chess[01:15.99]Means there's one less[01:18.78]Variation left to be played[01:24.49]Each day got through[01:27.20]Means one or two[01:29.90]Less mistakes remain to be made[01:35.54]Not much is known[01:36.84]Of early days of chess beyond a fairly vague report[01:40.35]That fifteen hundred years ago two princes fought[01:42.90]Though brothers, for a Hindu throne[01:44.99]Their mother cried[01:46.00]For no-one really likes their offspring fighting to the death[01:49.48]She begged them stop the slaughter with her every breath[01:52.24]But sure enough one brother died[01:54.04]Sad beyond belief[01:55.84]She told her winning son[01:57.44]You have caused such grief[01:59.58]I can't forgive this evil thing you've done[02:02.43]He tried to explain[02:04.83]How things had really been[02:05.95]But he tried in vain[02:08.25]No words of his could mollify the queen[02:11.34]And so he asked the wisest men he knew[02:14.10]The way to lessen her distress[02:16.40]They told him he'd be pretty certain to impress[02:19.15]By using model soldiers on[02:21.05]A checker board to show it was his brother's fault[02:23.85]They thus invented chess[02:26.30]Chess displayed no inertia[02:31.85]Soon spread to Persia, then west[02:37.36]Next the Arabs refined it,[02:42.64]Thus redesigned, it progressed[02:48.40]Still further yet[02:49.89]And when Constantinople fell in 1453[02:53.29]One would have noticed every other refugee[02:55.94]Included in his bags a set[02:57.90]Once in the hands[02:59.07]And in the minds of leading figures of the Renaissance[03:02.73]The spirit and the speed of chess made swift advance[03:05.19]Through all of Europe's vital lands[03:07.43]Where we must record[03:08.84]The game was further changed[03:10.29]Right across the board[03:12.45]The western touch upon the pieces ranged[03:14.54]King and queen and rook[03:17.24]And bishop, knight and pawn[03:18.84]All took on the look[03:20.84]We know today, the modern game was born[03:24.10]And in the end[03:25.50]We see a game that started by mistake in Hindustan[03:29.14]And boosted in the main by what is now Iran[03:32.05]Become the simplest and most complicated pleasure[03:34.40]Yet devised for just the kind of mind who would appreciate[03:38.30]This well researched and fascinating yarn.
