Kingdom Of Gold

Mark Knopfler

Transposer:

/u>     The high priest of money looks down on the river   The dawn coming up on his kingdom of gold When the rim of the sun sends an arrow of silver He prays to the gods of the bought and the sold He turns to his symbols his ribbons of numbers   They circle and spin on their mystical scroll   He looks for a sign while the city still slumbers And the ribbons and the river forever unroll          In his kingdom of gold          His kingdom of gold          Kingdom of gold              His kingdom of gold          Kingdom of gold /u>        On the horizon   an enemy haven   Sends traces of smoke high up into the sky   A pack of dog jackals and a rabble of ravens Who?ll come for his fortress his castle on high In his kingdom of gold          His kingdom of gold          Kingdom of gold              His kingdom of gold          Kingdom of gold /u>     His axes and armour will conquer these devils The turbulent raiders will falter and fall   Their leaders be taken their camps burned and levelled They?ll hang in the wind from his citadel walls   In his kingdom of gold          Kingdom of gold          Kingdom of gold          Kingdom of gold          Kingdom of gold          Kingdom of gold          Kingdom of gold          Kingdom of gold          Kingdom of gold /u>

The Trawlerman's Song

Am, D, G, C, B, Em, G7, Bm, F, B7
La chanson évoque l'idée d'un prêtre des finances qui observe son empire matérialiste, symbolisé par un royaume doré. Alors que le soleil se lève, il est plongé dans ses rituels liés à l'argent, priant pour le succès tout en étant conscient des dangers qui approchent. Des ennemis, représentés par des animaux de proie, menacent son château, mais il se rengorge de sa force militaire pour se défendre et préserver son trésor. Dans ce récit, on ressent une lutte entre la recherche de richesse et la vulnérabilité qui l'accompagne. Cela soulève des réflexions sur la fuite du temps, les batailles personnelles pour la sécurité matérielle, et les sacrifices que l'on est prêt à faire pour défendre ce que l'on possède.
