歌手名 Chess In Concert

1866 Wilhelm Steinitz

1894 Emmanuel Lasker

How straightforward the game

When one has trust in one's player

1921 Jose Capablanca

And how great the relief

Working for one who believes in

Loyalty heritage

True to his kind come what may

1927 Alex Alekhine

How straightforward the game

When one is free from distraction

1948 Mikhail Botvinnik

When your only concern

Is laid out so clearly before you

64 squares They are the reason you know you exist

1957 Vasily Smylov

It is the weak

Who accept tawdry untruths about freedom

1963 Tigran Petrosian

Prostituting themselves

Chasing a spurious starlight

Trinkets in airports

Sufficient to lead them astray

1969 Boris Spassky

Does the player exist in any human endeavor

Who has been known to resist

Sirens of fame and possessions

They will destroy you not rivals

Not age not success

1956 Budapest is rising

1956 Budapest is fighting

1956 Budapest is falling

1956 Budapest is dying
