《白金汉宫2》歌词:
[00:01.108]As royal residences go,
[00:03.108]Buckingham Palace is something of a newcomer.
[00:06.863]The staterooms are less than 200 years old.
[00:11.052]Yet its history is much older and more dramatic than you might think.
[00:20.258]Its rooms are filled with objects that are clues to the character of Kings and Queens past.
[00:32.283]And the art and architecture combine to make a statement about Britain's place in the world.
[00:41.798]The Palace as it appears now was designed at a time
[00:44.790]when Britain was the richest, most powerful nation on earth.
[00:48.353]This was meant to reflect that.
[00:50.312]But for the first monarch who lived on this spot,
[00:52.758]it was little more than a quiet retreat.
[00:55.360]How things have changed.

[00:01.108]就皇宫而言
[00:03.108]白金汉宫在某种程度上也是新来者
[00:06.863]作为皇宫,它的历史还不足200年(白金汉宫在1837年才正式成为皇宫)
[00:11.052]但是它的历史比你想象的要悠久和奇特
[00:20.258]房间里的物品无不显示着历任国王和女王的性格
[00:32.283]这里的艺术品和建筑一同向世界展示英国的地位
[00:41.798]现在你看到的这座宫殿
[00:44.790]是在英国国力最富强的时候设计的
[00:48.353]这个设计也是为了体现英国的鼎盛
[00:50.312]要不是第一位住在这里的君主
[00:52.758]这里只不过是一座安静的避难所
[00:55.360]事情是怎么变化的呢?
