Lord Marlborough - Fairport Convention (公平港口大会)[00:00:00]
You generals all and champions bold that takes delight in fields[00:00:02]
That knocks down churches and castle walls but now to death must yield[00:00:08]
We must go and face our daring foes and with a sword and shield[00:00:14]
I often fought with my merry men but now to death must yield[00:00:21]
I am an Englishman by birth Lord Marlborough is my name[00:00:55]
And I was brought up in London town a place of noted fame[00:01:02]
I was beside by all my men kings and princes likewise[00:01:08]
And then all the towns we took to all the world's surprise[00:01:14]
King Charles the Second I did serve to face our foes in France[00:01:24]
And at the battle of vafrever these people did advance[00:01:30]
The sun was down the earth did quake so loudly did he cry[00:01:36]
"Fight on my boys for old England's sake we'll conquer or we'll die"[00:01:43]
But now we gain for victory and bravely kept the field[00:02:20]
We took great numbers of prisoners and forced them all to yield[00:02:27]
That very day my horse got shot 'twas by a musket ball[00:02:33]
And as I mounted up again my aide-de-camp did fall[00:02:40]
Now I on a bed of sickness lie I am resigned to die[00:02:51]
You generals all and champions bold stand true as well as I[00:02:57]
"Stand true my lads and bright no man but fight with courage bold"[00:03:03]
I led my men through smoke and fire but never slight with gold[00:03:10]
