Ritchie Blackmore - The Temple of the King

 

    

Temple Of The King

One day in the year of the fox
Came a time remembered well
When the strong young man of the rising sun
Won the tolling of the big black bell
여우해 어느날의 기억이 생생합니다.
아침에 떠오르는 태양과 같은
그 젊고 강한 사나이가
크고 음울한 종을 울렸던 그해그날이

One day in the year of the fox
When the bell began to ring (sing)
It meant the time had come for one to go
To the Temple of the king
여우해, 어느날
그벨이 울리기 시작할 때면
왕의 신전으로 누군가 가야할
시간이 왔다는 것을 의미했습니다.

There in the middle of the circle, he stands
Searching, seeking
With just one touch of his trembling hand
The answer will be found
There it lies and waits while the old man sings
Heaven, help me
And then like a rush of a thousand wings
It shines upon the one
And the day has just begun
사람들이 에워싼 원 한가운데서
떨리는 손의 단한번의 신호를 기다리며
대답이 나오길 기다렸습니다.
그동안 늙은이는
"하나님 도와주소서!"
중얼거리며 누워 기다립니다.
그러자 천 개의 날개가 급히 날아오르고
그 위에 빛이 비치며
그날의 행사가 시작되었습니다.

One day in the year of the fox
Came a time remembered well
When the strong young man of the rising sun
Won the tolling of the big black bell
여우해 어느날의 기억이 생생합니다.
아침에 떠오르는 태양과 같은
그 젊고 강한 사나이가
크고 음울한 종을 울렸던 그해그날이

One day in the year of the fox
When the bell began to ring (sing)
It meant the time had come for one to go
To the Temple of the king
여우해, 어느날
그벨이 울리기 시작할 때면
왕의 신전으로 누군가 가야할
시간이 왔다는 것을 의미했습니다.

There in the middle of people, he stands
Seeing, feeling
With just the wave of a strong right hand
He's gone to the Temple of the king
그는 군중속에서 보고,느끼며 서있었고
이어서 젊은 권력자의
강력한 오른팔의 신호로
그는 왕의 신전으로 끌려갔습니다...

Far from the circle of the edge of the world
He's hoping wondering
Seeking back from the stories he's heard
Of what he's going to see
And there in the middle of the circle it lies
Heaven, help me
그는 이 세상의 끝자락에 있는, 인가로부터
멀리 떨어진 왕의 신전으로 갔습니다.
늙은이는 그가 앞으로 행해질 , 또 그가 들었던
이야기의 결과를 생각하고 궁금해하며
모인사람들 한가운데에 "하느님 도와주소서"라고
중얼거리며누워 있습니다.

But all could see by the shine in his eyes
The answer has been found
Back with the people in the circle, he stands
Giving, feeling
With just one touch of a strong right hand
They know of the temple and the king
그러나 모든 이들은 권력자 눈빛으로 알 수 있었죠
그 대답은 이미 정해진 것입니다.
그는 모여있는 사람들과 등을 돌리고 서 있었고.
그의 강한 오른손의 단 한번의 신호를
기다리며 느끼고 있습니다.
그들은 왕의 신전에 대해서 알고있었습니다


    



  

   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ritchie Blackmore

 

1974년도 Deep purple 에서 탈퇴한 기타리스트

Ritchie Blackmore가 결성한 그룹

 

 

After his departure from Deep Purple, Ritchie Blackmore spent the first half of 1994 assembling a new band. To avoid comparison with earlier line-ups of Rainbow he wanted to use the name Rainbow Moon, until record company pressure forced him to reanimate Rainbow.

The band included Scottish singer Doogie White, and American musicians Paul Morris (ex-Warlock), and John O'Reilly (ex Joe Lynn Turner band). Bassist Rob de Martino (ex Virgin Steele), was replaced by Greg Smith (ex Alice Cooper and Joe Lynn Turner) after the first rehearsals.The group wrote and rehearsed extensively towards the end of 1994 in America, then cut the album "Stranger In Us All" in January 1995 in New England, to be released in September at the start of the world tour. The album received a mixed fan reaction, but sold well in some territories (particularly Scandinavia and Japan). Just before the supporting tour John O'Reilly injured himself during a football match, and was quickly replaced by Chuck Burgi from Mk 8 Rainbow. O'Reilly later re-surfaced (briefly) with Blackmore's Night.

This line-up kicked off the tour in Helsinki, Finland, on September 30th 1995. European shows recorded included Stockholm for Swedish radio and Dusseldorf for German TV. The gigging went on through 1996, albeit at a slower pace than had been the case first time around, and included a trip to South America followed by a second lap around Europe.

Rainbow's previous manager Bruce Payne had stayed with Deep Purple, and Rainbow were handled by a new agency, though increasingly Ritchie Blackmore's girlfriend's mother began to take on a management role. Burgi left the band at the end of 1996 for a more financially rewarding gig with Enrique Iglesias, and was replaced by another American, John Micelli, who had worked with Meatloaf.

The group now set off on a low-key American tour, and the new album was finally issued there. The shows in February / March 1997 proved to be their last.

Blackmore had already talked about doing a proper solo album in partnership with Candice Night (who had helped write some of the "Stranger In Us All" songs), and the plan had been to finish that then reconvene Rainbow. The band played their last show at a festival in Esbjerg,Denmark on May 31st 1997. The rest of the band were offered 'retaining contracts' by Blackmore's new manager but with no clear future they declined, and Blackmore released his first Blackmore's Night album in April 1997.

Tribute act Over The Rainbow were formed in 2009, notable in that it comprised former Rainbow members Joe Lynn Turner on vocals, Greg Smith on bass, Bobby Rondinelli on drums, and Tony Carey on keyboards. With Ritchie Blackmore's blessing his son JR Blackmore joined on guitar. After an initial tour of the former USSR Carey left, to be replaced by Paul Morris. The band toured Europe in September and October 2009 Over The Rainbow 2009 tour reviews
