Historien har visat [English translation]

Slowly but surely as the deluge pours the time of eternity forward.

Irrepressable as the rotating earth washes over both wolves and lambs.

The man on the mountain with the animals and the ark is not there anymore he will soon be forgotten.

But others came who played with the thought to make sure history became short.

Experience showed them all that from the top is the longest to fall.

All those thousands who despised mankind received a marvelously similar share.

Na na na ......

Gone is Eve and the snake with cunning.

Gone is the story of the stone tablets.

and the ones who interpreted the scriptures are soon gone

so that it torments mankind.

Gone is the temptation and the savior's fields.

Those who died became dirt.

Heaven was intended for everyone with money.

Men received Hell for the sake of equilibrium.

The church became the stone that dammed up the river.

And the priest's robes jointly turned a blind eye for the murder.

Those who are good never come to heaven.

but that which he does will be gold in the future.

Na na na.....

Caesar, Ignatius, Napoleon, and Hitler.

Four figures from the time that was.

Large sacrifices for transient profits.

Truncated people were all that remained.

The time has come for us to decide.

If we will learn from everything that happened.

Will we always never learn anything

from those who don't want the right of mankind?

Don't let the lust for power melt your brain

or take you away from lies and slander.

History has shown how people must pay.

So think about how knowledge saves our children.

Na na na.....
