Lord Marlborough (马尔堡之主) - Fairport Convention (公平港口大会)[00:00:00]

Written by：Traditional [00:00:00]

You generals all and champions bold that takes delight in fields[00:00:00]

That knocks down churches and castle walls but now to death must yield[00:00:06]

We must go and face our daring foes and with a sword and shield[00:00:13]

I often fought with my merry men but now to death must yield[00:00:19]

I am an Englishman by birth lord Marlborough is my name[00:00:53]

And I was brought up in London town a place of noted fame[00:00:59]

I was beside by all my men kings and princes likewise[00:01:06]

And then all the towns we took to all the world's surprise[00:01:12]

King Charles the second I did serve to face our foes in France[00:01:21]

And at the battle of we boldly did advance[00:01:27]

The sun was down the earth did quake so loudly did he cry[00:01:34]

Fight on my boys for old England's sake we'll conquer or we'll die[00:01:40]

But now we gain for victory and bravely kept the field[00:02:18]

We took great numbers of prisoners and forced them all to yield[00:02:24]

That very day my horse got shot 'twas by a musket ball[00:02:31]

And as I mounted up again my aide de camp did fall[00:02:37]

Now I on a bed of sickness lie I am resigned to die[00:02:48]

You generals all and champions bold stand true as well as I[00:02:54]

Stand true my lads and bright no man but fight with courage bold[00:03:01]

I led my men through smoke and fire but never slight with gold[00:03:07]
