Green Fields Of France Lyrics – Pat Woods
Singer: Pat Woods
Title: Green Fields Of France
Well how do you do, Private William McBride
Do you mind if I sit here down by your graveside
And rest for a while, meet the warm summer sun
I’ve been walking all day and I’m nearly done
I can see by your gravestone you were only nineteen
When you joined the great falling in 1916
I hope you died well and I hope you died clean
Or William McBride was it slow and obscene?
Did you leave a young wife or a sweetheart behind?
In some faithful heart is your memory enshrined
Although you diеd back in 1916
In that faithful heart are you forevеr 19
Or are you a stranger without even a name
And closed down forever behind the glass frame
In an old photograph, torn, battered and stained
And faded to yellow in a brown leather frame
The sun now it shines on the green fields of France
There’s a warm summer breeze, it makes the red puppies dance
And look how the sun shines from under the clouds
There’s no gas, no barbed wire, there’s no gun-firing now
But here in this graveyard there’s still no man’s land
The countless white crosses stand mute in the sand
To men’s blind indifference to his fellow man
To a whole generation that was butchered and damned
Ah young William McBride I can’t help wondering why
The soldiers that lie here, now why did they die?
And did they believe when they answered the call
Did they really believe that this war would end wars?
Were the sorrow, the suffering, the glory, the pain
The killing, the dying – was all done in vain
Oh young William McBride, it‘s all happened again
And again – and again – and again – and again…
Did they beat the drums lowly?
Did they play the fife flowly?
Did the sound the dead march as they lowered you down?
Did the band play ‘The Last Post’ in chorus?
Did the pipes play ‘The Flowers Of the Forest’?

Green Fields Of France – Terjemahan / Translation
Nah bagaimana Anda melakukannya, Swasta William McBride
Apakah Anda keberatan jika saya duduk di sini turun graveside Anda
Dan beristirahat untuk s#mentara waktu, memenuhi matahari musim panas yang hangat
Saya telah berjalan sepanjang hari dan aku hampir selesai
Aku bisa melihat dengan nisan Anda, Anda hanya sembilan belas
Ketika Anda bergabung dengan besar jatuh pada tahun 1916
Saya harap Anda meninggal dengan baik dan saya harap Anda mati bersih
Atau William McBride adalah lambat dan cabul?
Apakah Anda meninggalkan seorang istri muda atau kekasih belakang?
Dalam beberapa jantung yang setia adalah memori Anda diabadikan
Meskipun Anda diеd kembali pada tahun 1916
Dalam hati setia yang Anda forevеr 19
Atau apakah Anda orang asing tanpa nama
Dan ditutup selamanya di balik bingkai kaca
Dalam sebuah foto tua, robek, babak belur dan bernoda
Dan memudar menjadi kuning dalam bingkai kulit cokelat
Matahari sekarang bersinar di ladang hijau dari Perancis
Ada angin musim panas yang hangat, itu membuat menari anak-anak anjing merah
Dan lihat bagaimana matahari bersinar dari bawah awan
Tidak ada gas, tidak ada kawat berduri, tidak ada senjata-menembak sekarang
Tapi di sini di kuburan ini masih ada tanah tak bertuan
Salib putih yang tak terhitung jumlahnya berdiri bisu di pasir
Untuk buta ketidakpedulian laki-laki untuk sesamanya
Untuk seluruh generasi yang dibantai dan terkutuk
Ah muda William McBride saya tidak dapat membantu bertanya-tanya mengapa
Para prajurit yang berbaring di sini, sekarang mengapa mereka mati?
Dan mereka percaya ketika mereka menjawab panggilan
Apakah mereka benar-benar percaya bahwa perang ini akan berakhir perang?
Adalah kesedihan, penderitaan, kemuliaan, rasa sakit
Pembunuhan, sekarat – semua dilakukan sia-sia
Oh muda William McBride, itu semua terjadi lagi
Dan lagi – dan lagi – dan lagi – dan lagi …
Apakah mereka mengalahkan drum rendah?
Apakah mereka bermain fife yang flowly?
Apakah suara pawai mati karena mereka menurunkan Anda ke bawah?
Apakah bermain band ‘The Last Post’ di paduan suara?
Apakah pipa bermain ‘The Flowers Of the Forest’?
