作曲 : Derek Warfield
Hark! the tocsin is sounding, my comrades;
Bind your knapsacks—away let us go,
Where the flag of the freeman is waving—
March to vanquish the federal foe!
Farewell to the scenes of my childhood,
To my mother, who’s praying for me;
She would weep if the son of her bosom
From the face of a foeman should flee.
For Liberty! Freedom and glory,
The watchword, away let us go
To the sound of the drum and the bugle,
March to vanquish the federal foe!
Farewell to the home and the hearthstone,
Where my sisters are weeping for me;
Oh; the foot of the spoilers shall never,
Stain the home of the brave and the free.
Adieu, thou beloved of my bosom!
For thy soldier-love shed not a tear;
But beseech the great Lord of the battle,
To protect him for all he holds dear.
For Liberty! Freedom and glory,
The watchword, away let us go
To the sound of the drum and the bugle,
March to vanquish the federal foe!
Adieu, honored father! who taught me,
For the rights of my country to stand—
To resist, when the rod of aggressor,
Shakes in wrath o’er my dear native land.
My country, thou home of my loved ones!
The tyrant would seek to enslave—
Sweep you off from the face of creation,
Wake, freemen, our country to save!
For Liberty! Freedom and glory,
The watchword, away let us go
To the sound of the drum and the bugle,
March to vanquish the federal foe!
Oh, my country, thou home of my loved ones!
The tyrant would seek to enslave—
Sweep you off from the face of creation,
Wake, freemen, our country to save!
“Sweep the South from the face of the earth!” boys?
We can sweep, too, O land of our birth!
For our homes and our altars and dear ones,
We the ruffians can sweep from the earth.
For Liberty! Freedom and glory,
The watchword, away let us go
To the sound of the drum and the bugle,
March to vanquish the federal foe!
When the old British lion oppressed us,
He with Washington went to the field;
Unto Him we will look in the battle,
And will strike ’til the enemy yield!
Adieu to the church, where the Christian
For the soldier and Sabbath will pray;
But the Bible and chaplain go with us,
And Jehovah, our God, is our stay!
For Liberty! Freedom and glory,
The watchword, away let us go
To the sound of the drum and the bugle,
March to vanquish the federal foe!
