Слова
Each game of chess
Means there's one less
Variation left to be played
Each day got through
Means one or two
Less mistakes remain to be made
Not much is known
Of early days of chess
Beyond a fairly vague report
That fifteen hundred years ago two princes fought
Though brothers, for a Hindu throne
Their mother cried
For no one really likes fheir offspring fighting fo the death
She begged them stop the slaughter with her every breath
But sure enough one brother died
Sad beyond belief
She told her winning son
"You have caused such grief
I can't forgive
This evil thing you've done"
He tried to explain
How things had really been
But he tried in vain
No words of his
Could mollify the queen
And so he asked
The wisest men he knew
The way to lessen her distress
They told him he'd be
Pretty certain to impress
By using model soldiers
On a checkered board
To show it was his brother's fault—
They thus invented chess
Chess displayed no inertia
Soon spread to Persia
Then west
Next the Arabs refined it
Thus redesigned, it
Progressed
Still further yet
And when Constantinople fell in 1453
One would have noticed every other refugee
Included in his bags a set
Once in the hands
And in the minds of leading figures of the Renaissance—
The spirit and the speed of chess made swift advance
Through all of Europe's vital lands
Where we must record (Each game of chess)
The game was further changed right (Means there's one less)
Across the board the western touch (Variation)
Upon the pieces ranged (To be played)
King and queen and rook
And bishop, knight, and pawn
All took on the look
We know today—
The modern game was born
And in the end
We see a game
That started by mistake in Hindustan—
And boosted in the main by what is now Iran—
Become the simplest
And most complicated
Pleasure yet devised
For just the kind of mind
Who would appreciate this
Well-researched and fascinating yarn
Written by: Benny Andersson, Björn Ulvaeus, Tim Rice
