标题[ENG] Swing Low, Sweet Chariot
时间Sun May 30 16:48:11 2004
Swing Low Sweet Chariot 原本是一首反黑奴的美国民谣。
不知为何，也不知何时变成English rugby的注册商标。
因为实在是太久远，没人记得是怎麽回事了，
现在只能推测可能是因为“旋律单纯”与“歌词简单且重复”而广为流行。
现在“Swing Low”甚至已经变成Rugby传统的一部份。
在英格兰主场Twickenham(也是Rugby传统象徵之一)的英格兰球迷，
就该大声且自豪的唱着Swing Low。
英格兰国家队也被昵称作Sweet Chariot。
不过，非英格兰球迷似乎对这首歌没什麽好感，称它为hated song。:P
Swing Low, Sweet Chariot Harry Thacker Burleigh, 191? (1866-1949)
Swing low, sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home!
I looked over Jordan and what did I see,
Comin' for to carry me home!
A band of angels comin' after me,
Comin' for to carry me home!
Swing low, sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home!
If you get there before I do,
Comin' for to carry me home,
Jess tell my friends that I'm acomin' too,
Comin' for to carry me home.
Swing low, sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home!
I'm sometimes up and sometimes down,
Comin' for to carry me home,
But still my soul feels heavenly bound
Comin' for to carry me home!
