歌词
Some talk of Alexander, and some of Hercules
人尊敬亚历山大,崇拜赫拉克勒斯
如赫克托莱桑德,大英雄比比皆是
Of Hector and Lysander, and such great names as these.
纵览世界英雄史,无人能与之比拟
正是一排又一排,大英帝国投弹兵
But of all the world's great heroes, there's none that can compare.
下达命令一声吼,大地也要抖三抖
指挥随引信行军,我们拿起手榴弹
With a tow, row, row, row, row, row, to the British Grenadiers.
爬上斜堤奋力掷,炸在敌人耳边响
歌颂一排又一排,大英帝国投弹兵
Whene'er we are commanded to storm the palisades,
美酒琼浆斟满杯,为了健康而干杯
腰揣袋来头带帽,身着华丽红外套
Our leaders march with fusees, and we with hand grenades.
愿众士兵与指挥,养怡之福得用年
致敬一排又一排,大英帝国投弹兵
We throw them from the glacis, about the enemies' ears.
With a tow, row, row, row, row, row, to the British Grenadiers.
Then let us fill a bumper, and drink a health to those
Who carry caps and pouches, and wear the loupèd clothes.
May they and their commanders live happy all their years.
With a tow, row,row, row, row, row, to the British Grenadiers.
