歌词
作曲:Buffy Sainte-Marie
他身高五呎二，他身高六呎四
He's five foot-two, and he's six feet-four
他用导弹战斗，也用长矛战斗
He fights with missiles and with spears
他今年31岁，他也年仅17
He's all of thirty-one, and he's only seventeen
他已经当了千年的士兵
He's been a soldier for a thousand years
他是天主教徒，印度教徒，无神论者，耆那教徒
He'a a Catholic, a Hindu, an Atheist, a Jain
也是佛教徒，浸信会教徒，犹太教徒
A Buddhist and a Baptist and a Jew
他知道他不应该杀人
And he knows he shouldn't kill
但他也知道这是士兵的宿命
And he knows he always will
为了我和朋友去杀掉你，你也为此而杀掉我
Kill you for me my friend and me for you
他为加拿大而战
And he's fighting for Canada
他为法国而战
He's fighting for France
他为美国而战
He's fighting for the USA
他也为俄罗斯而战
And he's fighting for the Russians
为日本而战
And he's fighting for Japan
他觉得我们要用杀戮来结束战争
And he thinks we'll put an end to war this way
他为民主而战
And he's fighting for Democracy
也为共产而战
He's fighting for the Reds
他说这是为了所有人的和平
He says it's for the peace of all
他必须要做出决定
He's the one who must decide
我们谁生谁死
Who's to live and who's to die
但他却从来没有看过写在墙上的文字
And he never sees the writing on the wall
如果没有他，希特勒怎能独自犯下达豪集中营里的罪行？
But without him how would Hitler have condemned him at Dachau?
如果没有他，凯撒不过是个孤家寡人
Without him Caesar would have stood alone
他就是这样一个人，他将自己的身躯作为战争的武器
He's the one who gives his body as a weapon of the war
如果没有他，这一切的杀戮暴行都无法继续
And without him all this killing can't go on
他就是全天下的士兵
He's the Universal Soldier
他真的应该受到责备
And he really is to blame
但他的命令并非来自远方
His orders come from far away no more
而是来自你，来自我，来自他
They come from him, and you and me
兄弟们，你们看不出来吗
And brothers, can't you see
这样下去，我们可结束不了战争
This is not the way we put an end to war
