The songs of the wars are as old as the hills 战争的歌是因为由来已久

They cling like the rust on the cold steel that kills 他们执着喜欢上了冷兵器杀死锈

They tell of the boys who went down to the tracks 他们告诉谁去下到轨道的男生

In a patriotic manner with the cold steel on their backs 在爱国的方式与在他们的后面的冷兵器

   

The patriot's dream is as old as the sky 爱国者的梦想是一样古老的天空

It lives in the lust of a cold callous lie 它生活在寒冷无情的谎言的情欲

Let's drink to the men who got caught by the chill 让我们喝谁被抓住了寒意的男人

Of the patriotic fever and the cold steel that kills 爱国热和冷兵器杀死的

   

The train pulled away on that glorious night 火车开走的那光荣的晚上

The drummer got drunk and the bugler got tight 鼓手喝醉的号手有紧

While the boys in the back sang a song of good cheer 而在后面的男生唱的放心的一首歌

While riding off to glory in the spring of their years 而骑过辉煌在自己多年的春天

   

The patriot's dream still lives on today 爱国者的梦想仍然活在今天

It makes mothers weep and it makes lovers pray 这让妈妈哭了，这让恋人祈祷

Let's drink to the men who got caught by the chill 让我们喝谁被抓住了寒意的男人

Of the patriotic fever and the cold steel that kills 爱国热和冷兵器杀死的
