作曲 : Rouget de L'Isle Virginia hears the dreadful summons Sounding hoarsly from afar On her sons she calls and calmly Bids them now, " Prepare for war!" Bids them now, " Prepare for war!" With manly hearts and hands to aid her She cares not how her foemen swarm She bares her bosom to the storm While she laughs to scorn the proud invader To arms! brothers dear! Gird on the trenchaat brand! Strike home! Strike home! No craven fear! For home and native land! Strike home! Strike Home! No craven fear! For home and native land! Shall the sons of old Viriginia Prove unworthy of their sires? No! They'll show the haughty foeman That in fight, she never tires With fav'ring Heaven to befriend her To whom alone she bends the knee 'Till every foot of soil ist free She her sacred cause will ne'er surrender She her sacred cause will ne'er surrender To arms! brothers dear! Gird on the trenchaat brand! Strike home! Strike home! No craven fear! For home and native land! Strike home! Strike Home! No craven fear! For home and native land!
