Перевод песни Cradle of Filth - For those who died

– You stand before this court
Accused of heresy and witchcraft
How do you plead?

– Didn’t do owt!

– Guilty! Guilty! Guilty!

Our tongues they could not silence
With their malicious lies
Their unforgotten violence
Remember those who died

And as my flesh is put to fire
I hear their voices still
Their unjust accusations
Demanding I am killed

‘We shall show no mercy to heathen such as thee
Who stand accused and have refused the Church’s clemency
Your wicked acts are endless though the crimes we cannot name
Innocent or guilty proved we’ll burn you just the same’

Burning, into the fire!
Burning, a funeral pyre
Burning, into the fire!
Burning, a funeral pyre

This self-righteous inquisition
Is a plague upon our land,
As false as the confessions
They force from shattered hands

‘We shall show no mercy to heathen such as thee
Who stand accused and have refused the Church’s clemency
Your wicked acts are endless though the crimes we cannot name
Innocent or guilty proved we’ll burn you just the same’

Burning, into the fire!
Burning, a funeral pyre
Burning, into the fire!
Burning, a funeral pyre

Abused my broken body
Is cleansed by righteous flame
Their God a ‘God of Mercy’ –
Yet in whose name I’m slain
For England!

My innocence the victim of their superstitious fears
Religious persecution for the past three hundred years
Preaching peace and mercy ‘neath the shadow of the knife
A papal reign of terror – slaughter in the name of Christ
Slaughter in the name of Christ! Slaughter in the name of Christ!

And as my flesh is put to fire
I hear their voices still
Their unjust accusations
Demanding that I am killed

‘We shall show no mercy to heathen such as thee
Who stand accused and have refused the Church’s clemency
Your wicked acts are endless though the crimes we cannot name
Innocent or guilty proved we’ll burn you just the same’

Burning, into the fire!
Burning, a funeral pyre
Burning, into the fire!
Burning, a funeral pyre
