The rain kept on falling

And darkened the sky

天空一片昏暗

The dawn was to come with the sunrise

黎明将伴随日出而来

Revealing the shadows

That passed through the mist

The torchlight was flickering, the storm

火炬闪烁，暴风雨

Was chasing them on

追赶着他们

...

A procession of dark coats

一队身穿黑衣的人

Followed the star

Foretold to come since ages

In silence they walked on

Crossing the lands

On their way to Bethlehem

To break the chains of the spell

Stone, they worshiped the stone

In generation from father to son

To the one who is born

The leader he knelt there

To greet the newborn

Holding his pendant before him

Teardrops were falling from

His eyes as he said

With powers greater than needed

The wizards commanded the lightning
