[查] Charles Edward Stuart
96年第一期MH(紫色封面,有一枝玫瑰)里的第三首叫Charles Edward Stuart的歌,说这歌是拿三个英国皇室人的名字来打擦边球什么什么。事实上"Charles Edward Stuart"的真人是有的,歌里唱的事也是真的历史故事。——我也不太记得那歌评是不是这样说的,谁有这本MH的帮我看看那个“BBC当家花旦”叫什么名字。我还挺爱唱的。顺便确认一下杂志上印的是"Charles Edward Stuart"还是"Charles Edward Stewart"。SHIT,居然让我查到歌词,也许是翻唱?
LOOK:
Charles Edward Stewart
He came across the waters from France to this green isle,
And here in Scotland they all loved his eloquence and style,
He soon became so popular this confident young man,
And gained the staunch allegiance of many a Scottish Clan.
Chorus: -
Charles Edward Stewart was his name,
To gain the crown of Scotland was his aim,
He strongly challenged Englands monarchy,
And changed the course of Scotlands history.
He brought the clans together as no-other of that day,
And the Jacobite rebellion was truly under way,
Though they bravely fought for freedom but the kings’ men did not yield,
And Scotlands hopes lay dying upon Culloden’s field.
Chorus.
In hot pursuit the Redcoats, gave chase when Charlie fled,
And the price of thirty thousand pounds was placed upon his head,
But unbetrayed he led the English troops a merry dance,
And in September forty-six he sailed back home to France.
Chorus.
Then came the bans no clan chiefs, no bagpipe to be played,
No Gaelic to be spoken, not another kilt displayed,
Yes the battle of Culloden was Prince Charlie’s great defeat,
And made disintegration of the clans almost complete.
