作词 : Traditional | |
You generals all and champions bold that takes delight in fields | |
That knocks down churches and castle walls but now to death must yield | |
We must go and face our daring foes and with a sword and shield | |
I often fought with my merry men but now to death must yield | |
I am an Englishman by birth, Lord Marlborough is my name | |
And I was brought up in London town, a place of noted fame | |
I was beloved by all my men, kings and princes likewise | |
And then all the towns we took to all the world's surprise | |
King Charles the Second I did serve to face our foes in France | |
And at the battle of Ramillies we boldly did advance | |
The sun was down, the earth did quake, so loudly did he cry | |
"Fight on, my boys, for old England's sake, we'll conquer or we'll die" | |
But now we gain for victory and bravely kept the field | |
We took great numbers of prisoners and forced them all to yield | |
That very day my horse got shot, 'twas by a musket ball | |
And as I mounted up again, my aide-de-camp did fall | |
Now I on a bed of sickness lie, I am resigned to die | |
You generals and champions bold stand true as well as I | |
"Stand true my lads and fight no man but fight with courage bold" | |
I led my men through smoke and fire but ne'er was slight with gold |
