歌词
他只是一个蓝眼睛的波士顿男孩
He was just a blue-eyed boston boy,
低沉的话语，带着伤痛
His voice was low with pain.
我愿为你献出忠心，患难与共的朋友
i'll do your bidding, comrade mine,
如果我能再次凯旋而归
If i ride back again.
但是如果是你归来，而我已经离开
But if you ride back and i am left,
你将会为我做很多事情
You'll do as much for me,
妈妈，你明白么，你一定要听远方的消息
Mother, you know, must hear the news,
才可以体贴的给她写信
So write to her tenderly.
她在家已等我许久
曾经深情的面颊，如今苍白悲痛
she's waiting at home like a patient saint,
我的离去会让她为之心碎
Her fond face pale with woe.
我知道，我将很快见到她
Her heart will be broken when i am gone,
刚刚军令再次传来
I'll see her soon, i know.
就如往常，双手紧紧相握
Just then the order came to charge,
他们说，“是的”，然后骑马离去
For an instance hand touched hand.
就是这样，一支勇敢忠诚的队伍
They said, ''aye,'' and away they rode,
笔直的轨道直通山顶
That brave and devoted band.
叛乱者躲在堡垒中射杀
死亡的犁耕过奋进向前的军队
不断的防守，不断的倒下
Straight was the track to the top of the hill,
不远处传来了令人恐惧的死亡呐喊
The rebels they shot and shelled,
在他们还没有到达相应的高度之际
Plowed furrows of death through the toiling ranks,
毁灭与死亡早已蔓延
And guarded them as they fell.
仿佛再次缓缓的归来
There soon came a horrible dying yell
站在漫山遍野的尸首中
From heights that they could not gain,
是一个卷发男孩
And those whom doom and death had spared
高大的黑暗男人，骑马离去
Rode slowly back again.
在他身后，躺着死亡的人
再没有谁，会写信给那蓝色双眸的女孩
But among the dead that were left on the hill
用她爱人曾对她倾诉的文字
Was the boy with the curly hair.
妈妈，你要明白，等着远方的消息
The tall dark man who rode by his side
最后只会知道，他已战死
Lay dead beside him there.
There's no one to write to the blue-eyed girl
The words that her lover had said.
Momma, you know, awaits the news,
And she'll only know he's dead.
