But one day the streets fell silent But one day the streets fell silent Mas um dias as ruas ficaram silenciosas, Yet they knew not what was wrong Yet they knew not what was wrong Ainda que eles não soubessem O que estava errado The urge to build these fine things The urge to build these fine things O desejo de construir tais belas coisas Seemed not to be so strong Seemed not to be so strong Não parecia ser tão forte The wise men were consulted The wise men were consulted Os homens sábios foram consultados, And the Bridge of Death was crossed And the Bridge of Death was crossed E a Ponte da Morte havia sido atravessada In quest of Dionysus In quest of Dionysus Em busca de Dionysus.
