以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Written by:Marty Robbins
In the southern part of Texas
在德克萨斯南部
In the town of San Antone
圣安东尼奥小镇
There's a fortress all in ruins
有座残破的要塞
That the weeds have overgrown
杂草丛生掩埋
You may look in vain for crosses
你难寻十字踪影
And you'll never see a one
永远找不到一座
But sometimes between the setting
但在日落月升间
And the rising of the sun
有时能听见传说
You can hear a ghostly bugle
你可听见幽灵般的军号声
As the men go marching by
当战士们列队行进
You can hear them as they answer
你可听见他们的应答
To that roll call in the sky
回应着天际的点名
Colonel Travis Davy Crockett
特拉维斯上校 大卫·克罗克特
And a hundred eighty more
还有那一百八十位勇士
Captain Dickinson Jim Bowie
迪金森上尉 吉姆·鲍伊
Present and accounted for
都已到齐 在此报到
Back in 1836 Houston said to Travis
1836年休斯顿对特拉维斯说
Get some volunteers and go
召集志愿军 即刻启程
Fortify the Alamo
去固守阿拉莫
Well the men came from Texas
勇士们来自德克萨斯
And from old Tennessee
还有古老的田纳西
And they joined up with Travis
他们追随特拉维斯
Just to fight for the right to be free
为自由的权利而战
Indian scouts with squirrel guns
印第安侦察兵手持猎枪
Men with muzzle loaders
手持前装枪的勇士们
Stood together heel and toe
肩并肩坚定站立
To defend the Alamo
誓死守卫阿拉莫
You may never see your loved ones
特拉维斯那日告诫
Travis told them that day
或许再难见亲人
Those who want to can leave now
愿离者可即刻离去
Those who fight to the death let them stay
求死者请留下奋战
In the sand he drew a line
他在沙地划下界线
With his army Sabre
手持军刀列阵以待
Out of a hundred eighty five
一百八十五名勇士
Not a soldier crossed the line
无一人临阵退缩
With his banners a dancing
旌旗在晨光中
In the dawn's golden light
迎着金色曙光飘扬
Santa Anna came prancing
圣安娜策马而来
On a horse that was black as the night
胯下黑驹如夜深沉
Sent an officer to tell
遣使传令劝降
Travis to surrender
特拉维斯拒绝投降
Travis answered with a shell
他回敬了一枚炮弹
And a rousing rebel yell
伴着激昂的南军战吼
Santa Anna turned scarlet
圣安娜气得满脸通红
Play Decalogue he roared
他怒吼着要执行军法
I will show them no quarter
绝不给予任何宽恕
Every one will be put to the sword
每个守军都将被处决
One hundred and eighty five
这一百八十五名勇士
Holding back five thousand
以寡敌众五千兵
Five days six days eight days ten
五日六日八日十日坚守
Travis held and held again
特拉维斯率部死战不退
Then he sent for replacements
他遣使求援军
For his wounded and lame
为救伤残同袍
But the troops that were coming
但许诺的援兵
Never came never came never came
始终未至 终未至
Twice he charged and blew recall
两度冲锋 两度鸣金
On the fatal third time
在决定性的第三次进攻
Santa Anna breached the wall
圣安娜率军攻破城墙
And he killed them one and all
将守军屠戮殆尽
Now the bugles are silent
如今号角声已沉寂
And there's rust on each sword
每把剑都锈迹斑斑
And the small band of soldiers
这支小小的军队
Lie asleep in the arms of the lord
已在主的怀抱中长眠
In the southern part of Texas
在德克萨斯南部
Near the town of San Antone
圣安东尼奥城附近
Like a statue on his pinto rides a cowboy all alone
孤独的牛仔骑着花马 如雕像般伫立
And he sees the cattle grazing
他望着牛群吃草
Where a century before
百年前的战场
Santa Ana's guns were blazing
圣安娜的枪炮曾在此轰鸣
And the cannons used to roar
加农炮声震耳欲聋
And his eyes turn sorta misty
他的双眼泛起朦胧
And his heart begins to glow
他心中燃起炽热光芒
And he takes his hat off slowly
缓缓摘下他的军帽
To the men of Alamo
向阿拉莫的勇士们致敬
To the thirteen days of glory
献给那十三天的荣光
At the siege of Alamo
在阿拉莫浴血奋战的日子
