原歌词

[00:00.000]	作曲 : Traditional Music
[00:10.333]	'Twas on Good Friday morning,
[00:15.516]	All in the month of May,
[00:20.345]	A German Ship was signaling,
[00:25.333]	Beyond the Dingle Bay,
[00:29.847]	We had twenty thousand rifles
[00:34.749]	All ready for to land,
[00:39.031]	But no answering signal did come from,
[00:44.148]	The lonely Banna Strand.
[00:50.632]	"No signal answers from the shore",
[00:55.800]	Sir Roger sadly said,
[01:00.378]	No comrades here to welcome me,
[01:05.183]	Alas, they must be dead,
[01:09.748]	But I must do my duty
[01:14.662]	And at once I mean to land,
[01:19.067]	So in a small boat pulled ashore
[01:24.098]	On the lonely Banna Strand.
[01:27.748]
[01:30.533]	Now the R.I.C. were hunting for
[01:35.649]	Sir Roger high and low,
[01:40.198]	They found him at McKenna's fort;
[01:45.082]	Said they: "You are our foe",
[01:49.533]	Said he: "I'm Roger Casement,
[01:54.649]	I came to my native land,
[01:59.150]	And they mean to free my countrymen
[02:04.212]	On the lonely Banna Strand.
[02:07.929]
[02:10.462]	Now they took Sir Roger prisoner,
[02:15.812]	And they sailed for London town,
[02:20.379]	And in the Tower they laid him,
[02:25.245]	A traitor to the Crown;
[02:29.679]	Said he "I am no traitor",
[02:34.679]	But his trial he had to stand,
[02:39.329]	For bringing German rifles to,
[02:44.096]	The lonely Banna Strand.
[02:50.712]	'Twas in an English prison
[02:55.663]	That they led him to his death,
[03:00.162]	"I'm dying for my country"
[03:05.296]	He said with his last breath,
[03:09.579]	They buried him in British soil
[03:14.646]	Far from his native land,
[03:19.045]	And the wild waves sing his requiem
[03:24.046]	On the lonely Banna Strand.
[03:27.689]
[03:30.396]	Now they took Sir Roger home again
[03:35.779]	In the year of '65,
[03:40.146]	And with his comrades of '16
[03:45.312]	In peace and tranquil lies,
[03:49.446]	His last fond wish, it is fulfilled
[03:54.712]	For to lie in his native land,
[03:58.812]	And the waves will roll in peace again
[04:03.995]	On the lonely Banna Strand.
[04:10.396]	And the waves will roll in peace again——
[04:15.663]	On the lonely Banna Strand.

歌词翻译

[00:10.333]	那是一个美好的周五早晨，
[00:15.516]	正值五月
[00:20.345]	一艘德国军舰发出信号
[00:25.333]	在丁格尔湾之外
[00:29.847]	两万支步枪，
[00:34.749]	准备就绪，随时登陆
[00:39.031]	但寂静而杳无音讯的
[00:44.148]	是寂静邦纳滩
[00:50.632]	“岸上没有回应，”
[00:55.800]	罗杰爵士悲伤地说
[01:00.378]	没有战友在此迎接我
[01:05.183]	唉，他们一定已经牺牲了
[01:09.748]	但我必须履行我的职责
[01:14.662]	我打算立刻登陆
[01:19.067]	于是，他乘坐一艘小船登陆
[01:24.098]	寂静邦纳滩
[01:27.748]
[01:30.533]	皇家爱尔兰警队（英国部队）
[01:35.649]	上上下下狩猎着罗杰爵士
[01:40.198]	他们在麦肯纳堡找到了他；
[01:45.082]	他们说：“你是我们的敌人”
[01:49.533]	他回答：我是罗杰·凯斯门特，
[01:54.649]	我回到了我的祖国，
[01:59.150]	他们要解放我的同胞，
[02:04.212]	在寂静邦纳滩
[02:07.929]
[02:10.462]	他们俘虏了罗杰爵士
[02:15.812]	然后他们驶往伦敦城
[02:20.379]	把他关进了伦敦塔
[02:25.245]	一个叛国者
[02:29.679]	他说：“我不是叛徒，”
[02:34.679]	但他必须接受审判
[02:39.329]	因为他把德国步枪带到了，
[02:44.096]	寂静邦纳滩
[02:50.712]	他被押往英国监狱，
[02:55.663]	在那里被处死，
[03:00.162]	“我为我的祖国而死，”
[03:05.296]	他用尽最后一口气说道
[03:09.579]	他们把他埋葬在英国的土地上，
[03:14.646]	远离他的祖国，
[03:19.045]	狂野的海浪为他吟唱安魂曲，
[03:24.046]	在寂静邦纳滩。
[03:27.689]
[03:30.396]	现在，他们把罗杰爵士带回了家乡，
[03:35.779]	在1965年
[03:40.146]	与他复活节的16个战友们一起，
[03:45.312]	安息在宁静祥和之中
[03:49.446]	他最后的愿望，实现了，
[03:54.712]	安息在他的故乡，
[03:58.812]	海浪将再次平静地翻滚
[04:03.995]	在寂静邦纳滩。
[04:10.396]	海浪将再次平静地翻滚——
[04:15.663]	在寂静邦纳滩。
