《Vaughan Williams: Symphony No.5 in D - Dulce et Decorum Est (3. Romanza Excerpt)》歌词

[00:00:00] Dulce et Decorum Est [Symphony No. 5 III. Romanza Excerpt

[00:00:26] Bent double like old beggars under sacks

[00:00:30] Knockkneed coughing like hags we cursed through sludge

[00:00:34] Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs

[00:00:37] And towards our distant rest began to trudge

[00:00:41] Men marched asleep many had lost their boots

[00:00:45] But limped on bloodshod all went lame all blind

[00:00:51] Drunk with fatigue deaf even to the hoots

[00:00:55] Of disappointed shells that dropped behind

[00:01:00] Gas gas quick boys an ecstasy of fumbling

[00:01:04] Fitting the clumsy helmets just in time

[00:01:08] But someone still was yelling out and stumbling

[00:01:11] And floundering like a man in fire or lime

[00:01:14] Dim through the misty panes and thick green light

[00:01:18] As under a green sea I saw him drowning

[00:01:22] In all my dreams before my helpless sight

[00:01:25] He plunges at me guttering choking drowning

[00:01:30] If in some smothering dreams you too could pace

[00:01:35] Behind the wagon that we flung him in

[00:01:37] And watch the white eyes writhing in his face

[00:01:41] His hanging face like a devil's sick of sin

[00:01:45] If you could hear at every jolt the blood

[00:01:48] Come gargling from the frothcorrupted lungs

[00:01:51] Obscene as cancer bitter as the cud

[00:01:55] Of vile incurable sores on innocent tongues

[00:01:59] My friend you would not tell with such high zest

[00:02:03] To children ardent for some desperate glory

[00:02:07] The old lie dulce et decorum est

[00:02:11] Pro patria mori
