1
I used to rule the world,
2
the seas would rise when I gave the word Now in the morning I sleep alone,
3
sweep the streets I used to own
4
I used to roll the dice, feel the fear in my enemy's eyes,
5
listen as the crowd would sing.
6
Now the old king is dead, long with the king.
7
From pillars of sun, pillars of sand.
8
I hear terrors and the bells are ringing.
9
Roman cavalry choirs are singing.
10
Me, my mirror, my soul and cheer.
11
My missionaries in a foreign field.
12
For some reason I can't explain.
13
Once you've gone, it was never, never an honest word.
14
It was a wicked and wild wind Blew down the doors to let me in Shattered windows
15
and the sound of drums People couldn't believe what I'd become The missionaries wait for my head on a silver plate,
16
just a puppet on a lonely string, oh, who would ever want to be king?
17
I hear terrible bells ringing, Roman cavalry choirs are singing.
18
I know Saint Peter won't call my name, never an honest word, but that was when I ruled the world.
19
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

23
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh I was an honest word, but that was when I ruled the world.
24
I used to rule the world Seas have rise
25
when I gave the word Now in the morning I sleep alone Sweep the streets I used to own
26
I used to roll the dice,
27
feel the fear in my enemies eyes Listen as the crowd would sing, now the old king is dead,
28
long live the king And I discovered that my castle was down,
29
upon pillars of sun, pillars of sand.
30
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing, Roman Catholic choirs are singing.
31
Be my mirror, my soul and shield, my missionaries in a foreign field.
32
The oldest word, that was when I ruled the world.
33
It was a wicked and wild wind blew down the doors to let me in.
34
People couldn't believe what I'd become
35
Revolutionaries wait for my hand on a silver plate Just a
36
puppet on a lonely string of who would ever want to be king I hear Jerusalem bells ringing,
37
Roman cavalry choirs are singing For some reason I fall and feel,
38
or some reason I can't explain.
39
I know Saint Peter won't call my name, never an honest word, but that was when I ruled the world.
40
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

この動画で話す練習をする理由は？
Coldplayの「Viva la Vida」の歌詞は、感情的で力強い内容を持っており、英語を学ぶ人にとって良い学習素材となります。この動画を使用することで、YouTubeで英語学習はもちろん、英語スピーキング練習にも最適です。歌の中で語られる物語や感情を通じて、実際の会話で使われるフレーズや表現を学ぶことができます。また、メロディーに合わせて言葉を発音することで、英語のリズム感を養い、英語シャドーイングにも効果的です。
文法と表現の文脈
- 過去形の使用:「used to」という表現は過去の習慣を表し、話し手が以前経験したことを説明しています。この表現は、自分の過去を語る際に非常に便利です。
- 条件文:「if」節を使った表現がよく見られ、特に仮定を含む場合の会話で役立ちます。このような文法構造に慣れることで、より自然に会話を行えます。
- 受動態:歌詞中には受動態が多く使用されており、「人々が私に信じられなかった」という形で、物事の受け身な側面を強調します。これは重要なコミュニケーションスキルです。
一般的な発音の罠
この曲には特有の発音がいくつかあります。特に「king」や「word」といった単語は、英語の母国語話者が話す際のアクセントに注意が必要です。英語の発音を良くするためには、これらの単語を正しく、そして強調をつけて発音することが大切です。また、歌詞のリズムに合わせて声に出すことで、shadow speakを実践し、より流暢な英語の発音を楽しく練習できます。
この動画の文法
話し手がよく使っている文型を、動画の実際の表現とともに紹介します。
| 文型 | 動画での表現 |
|---|---|
| 「used to」 used to + 動詞 — 今はもう違う過去の習慣や状態 | used to rule · used to own · used to roll |
| 現在完了形 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去の出来事が今も関係している | you've gone · I've become · I've been run |
シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
