Was My Brother In the Battle歌詞

[00:00.000] 作曲 : Stephen Foster
[00:12.218] Tell me, tell me, weary soldier from the rude and stirring wars,
[00:17.572] Was my brother in the battle where you gained those noble scars?
[00:22.980] He was ever brave and valiant, and I know he never fled.
[00:28.143] Was his name among the wounded or numbered with the dead?
[00:33.455] Was my brother in the battle when the tide of war ran high?
[00:38.660] You would know him in a thousand by his dark and flashing eye.
[00:44.124] Tell me, tell me, weary soldier, will he never come again,
[00:49.297] Did he suffer ‘mid the wounded, did he die among the slain?
[00:56.106] Was my brother in the battle when the noble Highland host
[01:01.556] Were so wrongfully outnumbered on the Carolina coast?
[01:06.777] Did he struggle for the Union ‘mid the thunder and the rain,
[01:12.090] Till he fell among the brave upon a bleak Virginia plain?
[01:17.500] Oh, I’m sure that he was dauntless and his courage ne’er would lag
[01:22.730] While contending for the honor of our dear and cherished flag.
[01:28.096] Tell me, tell me, weary soldier, will he never come again,
[01:33.377] Did he suffer ‘mid the wounded, did he die among the slain?
[01:50.663] Was my brother in the battle when the flag of Erin came
[01:56.110] To the rescue of our banner and protection of our fame,
[02:01.443] While the fleet from off the waters poured out terror and dismay
[02:06.736] Till the bold and erring foe fell like leaves on Autumn day?
[02:12.247] When the bugle called to battle and the cannon deeply roared,
[02:17.432] Oh! I wish I could have seen him draw his sharp and shining sword.
[02:22.757] Tell me, tell me, weary soldier, will he never come again,
[02:28.000] Did he suffer ‘mid the wounded, did he die among the slain?
[02:34.723] Tell me, tell me, weary soldier from the rude and glittering wars,
[02:40.038] Was my brother in the battle where you gained those noble scars?
[02:45.412] He was ever brave and valiant, and I know he never fled.
[02:50.687] He was named among the wounded or numbered with the dead?
[02:56.107] Was my brother in the battle when the tide of war was high?
[03:01.488] You would know him in a thousand by his dark and flashing eye.
[03:06.761] Tell me, tell me, weary soldier, will he never come again,
[03:11.955] Did he suffer ‘mid the wounded, did he die among the slain?
