歌词
As Sunday dawns on Shiloh
在夏洛周日的破晓
From out the dark, gaunt Pines,
在漆黑死寂的松林中
Bursts Sidney Johnson's vanguard,
希尼约翰斯顿的先锋
On Grant's raw, battle lines.
轰入格兰特的防线
The dread ravine re-echoes,
可怕的回响传遍山谷
With crash and batteries roar
夹杂炮声与战吼
Their rebel yell high Peeling
叛军战吼高声掀起
With Hardee at the fore.
跟着威廉哈迪向前
Back huddling on the river,
一路撤退蜷缩在河岸的
Swirls Sherman's crushed command,
是谢尔曼曼崩溃的部队
And' cross the course of conquest,
在凶猛的进攻下
