I'm writing this down in a trench mon 我写下来的沟槽纹

Don't scold if it isn't so neat 不要骂，如果它不是那么整齐

The way that you did, when I was a kid 你做到了，当我还是个孩子的方法

When I'd come home with mud on my feet 当我回家了泥土上我的脚

   

The captain just gave us our orders 队长只是给了我们订单

And mom we must carry them through 和妈妈一定要带他们通过

I'll finish this letter the first chance I get 我写完这封信我得到的第一次机会

But for now I'll just say I love you 但现在我只想说我爱你

   

Then the mothers old hands began to tremble 然后母亲老手开始颤抖

And she fought back the tears in her eyes 她在她的眼里回击的眼泪

But they came unashamed,for there was no blame 但他们来到毫无顾忌的，因为没有怪

And she knew that her soldier had died 她知道，她的士兵已死亡

   

Then the mother knelt down by her bedside 这时母亲跪在她的床边

And she prayed Lord above hear my plea 她祈求上帝上面听到我的请求

Please protect all the boys who are fighting tonight 请保护所有谁是今晚的战斗男孩
