English lyrics

On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair

Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air

< p>Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light

My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim

I had to stop for the night

There she stood in the doorway;

I heard the mission bell

And I was thinking to myself, "This could be Heaven or this could be Hell"

Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way

There were voices down the corridor,

I thought I heard them say...

"Welcome to the Hotel California

Such a lovely place, Such a lovely face

Plenty of rooms at the Hotel California

Any time of year, you can find it here "

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes benz

She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends

How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.

Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

So I called up the Captain, "Please bring me my wine"< /p>

He said, 'We haven't had that spirit here since 1969'

And still those voices are calling from far away,

Wake you up in the middle of the night

Just to hear them say...

"Welcome to the Hotel California

Such a lovely place, Such a lovely face

p>

They living it up at the Hotel California

What a nice surprise, bring your alibis"

Mirrors

on the ceiling, The pink champagne on ice

And she said 'We are all just prisoners here, of our own device'

And in the master's chambers, They gathered for the feast

They stab it with their steely knives,

But they just can't kill the beast

Last thing I remember, I was running for the door< /p>

I had to find the passage back to the place I was before

'Relax,' said the night-man," We are programmed to receive.

You can checkout any time you like,

but you can never leave!"?

Chinese lyrics

Driving on a dark desert road

The cool breeze blows my hair

The strong smell of marijuana

Diffuses in the air

Looking up into the distance

Me I saw lights flashing

My head became heavier and heavier

My vision became blurry

I had to stop

Looking The place where I spent the night

She stood at the door and greeted me

I heard the church bells in the distance

I said to myself

< p>This could be heaven

It could also be hell

At this time she lit a candle

and then showed me the way

There were voices coming down the hallway

I thought I heard them saying

Welcome to Hotel California

What a beautiful place

What a lovely face

The Hotel California has so many rooms

Anytime of the year

You can find a place here< /p>

Her heart is twisted by jewelry

She drives a Mercedes Benz

And she brings many beautiful and charming young men with her

She Call them friends

They danced in the courtyard

The scent of summer dripping with sweat

Some become memories

Some are Forgotten

So I called the foreman

Please bring me some wine

He said

Since 1969

We have no more supplies

Still hearing their words from afar

Wake you up in the middle of the night

Just hear them talking

p>

Welcome to Hotel California

What a beautiful place

What a lovely face

They had a wild orgy at Hotel California

< p>It's surprisingly nice here

An excuse to pervert

Mirrors on the ceiling

Pink champagne on ice

She said

We are all prisoners here

Debt for our own desires

In the large room of the main hall

People raised the fire of carnival

They stabbed with steel knives

But they couldn't kill the demons in their hearts

The last thing I remember

I was the one running for the door

I had to find the way I came from

Go back to where I was

"Relax,"

The gatekeeper said

"We are just receiving as usual" (pun: we are naturally tempted)

You can end at any time

p>

But you can never break free

The 1960s was a period of free creation in the American music industry. The popularity of rock music became a symbol of freedom and rebellious ideas in the 1960s.
