The Union Volunteers歌詞

作曲 : Lyrics: Tony Pastor; music: anonymous
From every hill and valley from every state and town
To arms! Our freemen rally to put rebellion down
The French, the Spanish and the Scotch upon the fields appear
While the Dutch and Irish march along with yankee volunteers
While the Dutch and Irish march along with yankee volunteers
Spinola's gallant empire boys their stamina will show
When in our glorious union's cause they'll rush upon the foes
"Our country!" be their battle cry. Our flag each one reveres
They'll win the day or nobly die, the empire volunteers
They'll win the day or nobly die, the empire volunteers
There's another gallant hero band whose dids we'll never forget
They fought in bled for freedom's land the French got Lafayette
The Germans too had nobly fought to way their castle fears
While gallant Sigel leads the way for the German volunteers
While gallant Sigel leads the way for the German volunteers
Old Ireland too was in the field what havoc they have made
We all have read the daring dids of Meagher's bold brigade
When "Faugh A Ballagh!" Paddy cries the field he quickly clears
For no foe can stand the bayonet charge of the Irish volunteers
For no foe can stand the bayonet charge of the Irish volunteers
Brave Curtin too has sweal the ranks with Pennsylvanian sons
And Massachusetts' hearty men stand nobly to their guns
The sturdy toilers of the west their fighting have no peers
They'll conquer soon the glorious peace, the union volunteers
They'll conquer soon the glorious peace, the union volunteers
