The grave that they dug him had flowers
他们为他挖的坟墓上有鲜花
Gathered from the hillsides in bright summer colours
在山坡上采集夏日的色彩
And the brown earth bleached white at the edge of his gravestone
墓碑The Verge的褐色土地变成了白色
He's gone
他走了
When the wars of our nation did beckon
我们国家的战争一触即发
A man barely twenty did answer the calling
一个不到二十岁的男人回应了我的呼唤
Proud of the trust that he placed in our nation
为他对我们国家的信任感到骄傲
He's gone
他走了
But eternity knows him
但永恒了解他
And it knows what we've done
它知道我们的所做所为
And the rain fell like pearls
雨滴像珍珠一样落下
On the leaves of the flowers
落在花瓣上
Leaving brown muddy clay
留下棕色泥泞的粘土
Where the earth had been dry
那里的大地已经干枯
And deep in the trench
在壕沟深处
He waited for hours
他等了好几个小时
As he held to his rifle
他握着步枪
And prayed not to die
祈祷不要死去
But the silence of night
但是寂静的夜
Was shattered by fire
被烈火摧毁
As guns and grenades
就像枪炮和手榴弹
Blasted sharp through the air
在空中爆炸
One after another
一个接一个
His comrades were slaughtered
他的战友被杀害了
In morgue of marines
躺在美军的太平间里
Alone standing there
独自站在那里
He crouched ever lower
他蹲得越来越低
Ever lower with fear
恐惧让我越陷越深
They can't let me die
他们不能让我死
They can't let me die here
他们不能让我死在这里
I'll cover myself
我会保护自己
With the mud and the earth
与泥泞和大地融为一体
I'll cover myself
我会保护自己
I know I'm not brave
我知道我不够勇敢
The earth
地球
The earth
地球
The earth is my grave
这世界就是我的坟墓
The grave that they dug him had flowers
他们为他挖的坟墓上有鲜花
Gathered from the hillsides in bright summer colours
在山坡上采集夏日的色彩
And the brown earth bleached white at the edge of his gravestone
墓碑The Verge的褐色土地变成了白色
He's gone
他走了
