The Cumberland Crew Lyrics – Smokey bastard
Singer: Smokey bastard
Title: The Cumberland Crew
Oh! shipmates, come rally, and join in my ditty
Of a terrible battle that happened of late
Let each good Union-Tar shed a tear of sad pity
As he listens to the once gallant Cumberland’s fate
It was the Eighth day of March told a terrible story
And many a tar to this world bid adieu
But our flag it was wrapt in a mantle of glory
By the heroic deeds of the Cumberland’s crew
On that ill-fated day about ten in the morning
The sky it was clear, and bright shone the sun
The drums of the Cumberland sounded a warning
Bidding each gallant seaman to stand by his gun
An iron-clad frigate down on us camе bearing
While high in the air a rеbel flag flew
Pennant of treason she proudly was waving
Determined to conquer the Cumberland’s crew
So our noble ship fired her guns’ dreadful thunder
Her broad-sides, like hail, on the Rebels did pour
But our sailors gazed on, filled with terror and wonder
As the shots struck her sides and glanced harmlessly forth
But the pride of our navy could never be daunted
Tho’ the dead and the dying her deck they did strew
And the flag of our Union how proudly she flaunted
Sustained by the blood of the Cumberland’s crew
Three hours we fought them with stern resolution
Till the rebels found cannon could never decide
The flag of secession had no power to gall them
Tho’ the blood from their scuppers, it crimson’d the tide
As they struck us on mid-ship, our planks she did sever
Her sharp iron prong pierced our noble ship
And still, though she splintered and twisted hard over
“We’ll die at our guns!” cried the Cumberland’s crew
So slowly they sank ‘Neath Virginia’s dark waters
Their voices on earth will ne’er be heard more
They’ll be mourned by Columbia’s brave sons and fair daughters
May their blood be avenged on Virginia’s shore
In their battle-stained graves they are silently lying
Their souls have forever to each bid adieu
But the star-spangled banner above them is still flying
For it was nailed to the mast by the Cumberland’s crew

The Cumberland Crew – Terjemahan / Translation
Oh! sekapal, datang reli, dan bergabung dalam lagu pendek saya
Pertempuran mengerikan yang terjadi akhir-akhir
Biarkan setiap baik Uni-Tar meneteskan air mata kasihan sedih
Saat ia mendengarkan nasib Cumberland sekali gagah
Itu hari Kedelapan Maret menceritakan kisah mengerikan
Dan banyak tar untuk ini kata perpisahan tawaran dunia
Tapi bendera kami itu wrapt dalam mantel kemuliaan
Oleh perbuatan heroik dari kru Cumberland ini
Pada hari naas sekitar sepuluh pagi
Langit itu jelas, dan bersinar terang matahari
Drum dari Cumberland terdengar peringatan
Menawar setiap pelaut yang gagah berdiri dengan senjatanya
Sebuah turun kapal besi-berpakaian pada kita camе bantalan
s#mentara tinggi di udara bendera rеbel terbang
Pennant pengkhianatan dia bangga melambaikan
Bertekad untuk menaklukkan kru Cumberland ini
Jadi kapal yang mulia kami dipecat guntur mengerikan senjata nya
Nya luas sisi, seperti hujan es, pada Pemberontak itu tuangkan
Tapi pelaut kami menatap pada, penuh dengan teror dan heran
Sebagai tembakan menghantam sisi tubuhnya dan melirik tanpa membahayakan sebagainya
Tapi kebanggaan angkatan laut kami tidak akan pernah bisa gentar
Tho’ orang mati dan sekarat dek nya mereka lakukan menaburi
Dan bendera Union kami bagaimana dengan bangga dia memamerkan
Ditopang oleh darah awak Cumberland ini
Tiga jam kami melawan mereka dengan resolusi tegas
Sampai pemberontak ditemukan meriam tidak pernah bisa memutuskan
Bendera pemisahan tidak memiliki kekuatan untuk empedu mereka
Tho’ darah dari pipa drainase mereka, crimson’d air pasang
Saat mereka menyerang kita pada pertengahan kapal, papan kami dia memutuskan
besi tajam cabang menusuk kapal mulia kami
Dan masih, meskipun ia pecah dan lebih keras memutar
“Kami akan mati di senjata kami!” teriak kru Cumberland ini
Jadi perlahan mereka tenggelam ‘perairan gelap Neath Virginia
suara mereka di bumi akan tak pernah didengar lebih
Mereka akan ditangisi oleh anak-anak berani Columbia dan putri adil
Mungkin darah mereka akan membalas dendam di pantai Virginia
Di kuburan pertempuran-bernoda mereka mereka diam-diam berbaring
Jiwa mereka harus selamanya untuk setiap kata perpisahan tawaran
Tapi banner bintang-kelip di atas mereka masih terbang
Untuk itu dipaku ke tiang oleh awak Cumberland ini
