Ответь же мне солдат
Зачем нам снова унывать?
Ответь же мне солдат
За что нам умирать?
Подлей вина
Коль выпьем мы стакан-другой,
Отвечу я:
«Пусть зной иль пурга,
Нам долг велит идти на бой
За короля.»
How stands the glass around
For shame you take no care, my boys,
How stands the glass around
Let wine and mirth abound;
The trumpet sound,
The colors they do fly my boys;
To fight, kill or wound;
As you would be found,
Contented with hard fare, my boys
On the cold ground
O why, soldiers why?
Should we be melancholy boys,
O why soldiers why?
Whose bus’ness is to die;
What? sighing? Fye!
Drink on, drown fear, be jolly boys;
‘Tis he, you or I,
wet, hot, cold or dry;
We’re always bound to follow boys,
And scorn to fly.
O’Tis but vain;
I mean not to upbraid you boys,
O’Tis but vain;
For a soldier to complain;
Should next campaign,
Send us to him that made us boys;
We’re free from pain,
But should we remain,
A bottle and kind landlady
Cures all again.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
«How Stands the Glass Around», also referred to as «General Wolfe’s Song», is an English folk song. [1] The lyrics express the suffering of soldiers, wherefore the song was primarily popular among people serving in the military. [2] It deals with the helplessness experienced during war and the boldness demanded in the military, but also about reducing fear and pain by consuming alcohol. One paper suggests that it was the favourite song of Alexander Hamilton. [3]
Background
The oldest known reference to the song is an alternative text written for a ballad opera in the year 1729. [4] [1] [2] It became notorious after Wolfe was reported to have sung it before the Battle of the Plains of Abraham (1759), gaining thereby the alternative title of «General Wolfe’s Song». [1] [2] [5]
Lyrics
How stands the glass around
For shame, ye take no care, me boys
How stands the glass around
Let mirth and wine abound
The trumpets sound
The colours, they are flying, boys
To fight, kill or wound
May we still be found
Content with our hard fare, me boys
On the cold ground
Why, soldiers, why
Should we be melancholy, boys
Why, soldiers, why
Whose business ’tis to die
What sighing fie
Damn fear, drink on, be jolly boys
’Tis he, you and I
Cold, hot, wet or dry
We’re always bound to follow, boys
And scorn to fly
’Tis but in vain
I mean not to upbraid you, boys
’Tis but in vain
For soldiers to complain
Should next campaign
Send us to Him that made us, boys
We’re free from pain
But should we remain
A bottle and kind landlady
Cures all again
