The Price of a Mile一米的代价



Hear the sound of a machinegun    听见机关枪的声音

Hear it echo in the night                     听见它在夜间回响

Mortals firing rains the scene          炮在迫击弹如雨幕

Scars the fields                                  原野如伤

that once were green                        它曾经是绿色



It's a stalemate at the frontline        前线就是困境

where the soldiers rest in mud       士兵在泥沼休息 

roads and houses                            道路和房屋

all is gone                                           皆已消逝

there is no glory to be won              没有赢得的荣誉     



know that many will suffer               知道无数人要受难

half a million lives at stake              千百万生命危急

Ask the fields of Passchendaele   请问帕斯尚尔的原野



And as the night falls the general calls  夜幕落下将军号令

and the battle carries on                  战斗在继续

How long?                                           还有多久？

What is the purpose of it all             它一切为了什么？

What's the price of a mile?              每一米的代价是什么？

It's an army on the march                队伍在行军中

Long way from home                        离开家的长路

Stuck in the trench with no way out 没有出路的战壕



Thousands of machineguns           千百万机关枪

Kept on firing through the night      彻夜在开火

Mortars placed and wrack the scene 迫击炮摧毁着现场

Guns the fields                                   向原野开火

Still a deadlock at the frontline       前线依然是地狱

Where the soldiers die in mud      士兵死在泥泞中

roads and houses since long gone 道路和房屋早已远逝

still no glory has been won                依然没有荣耀赢得

know that many men has suffered 知道无数人已经受难

know that many men has died         知道许多人已经死去



Six months of ground has been won 六个月的战场就是所得

Half a million men are gone               50万男人消逝    

And as the men crawl the general call 男人爬行将军号令
