| ★原文转载自lasj版zhy_4321的《关于Sing Up For The Champions! （1）转》★ Glory Glory Man United 的起源 by XoR 有一天我在一部二战题材的美国电视剧里听见一帮美国兵在唱歌, 旋律竟然和 <Glory Glory Man United> 一样, 于是我开始寻找 GGMU 的起源... GGMU 的旋律最最早来自基督教信徒聚会时的赞美诗<Oh brothers, will you meet us on Canaan's happy shore?>. 在1861年, 一首为了纪念废除奴隶制度主义者 John Brown 的歌曲 <John Brown's Body> 用了这个旋律. 歌词如下: John Brown's body lies a-mold'ring in the grave John Brown's body lies a-mold'ring in the grave John Brown's body lies a-mold'ring in the grave His soul goes marching on Glory, Glory! Hallelujah! Glory, Glory! Hallelujah! Glory, Glory! Hallelujah! His soul is marching on He captured Harper's Ferry with his nineteen men so true He frightened old Virginia till she trembled through and through They hung him for a traitor, themselves the traitor crew His soul is marching on John Brown died that the slave might be free, John Brown died that the slave might be free, John Brown died that the slave might be free, But his soul is marching on! The stars above in Heaven are looking kindly down The stars above in Heaven are looking kindly down The stars above in Heaven are looking kindly down On the grave of old John Brown 1862年, 一位政府官员的妻子 Julia Ward Howe 在杂志 At-lant-ic Month-ly 上发表了一首赞美诗，编辑为其命名为 <Battle Hymn of the Republic>, 音乐上是采用 <John Brown's Body> 的旋律. 在丘吉尔和R.肯尼迪的葬礼上都唱过这首歌. 歌词如下: Mine eyes have seen the glory Of the coming of the Lord; He is trampling out the vintage Where the grapes of wrath are stored; He hath loosed the fateful lightning Of His terrible swift sword; His truth is marching on. Chorus Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! His truth is marching on. I have seen Him in the watchfires Of a hundred circling camps They have builded Him an altar In the evening dews and damps; I can read His righteous sentence By the dim and flaring lamps; His day is marching on. Chorus I have read a fiery gospel writ In burnished rows of steel: "As ye deal with My contemners, So with you My grace shall deal": Let the Hero born of woman Crush the serpent with His heel, Since God is marching on. Chorus He has sounded forth the trumpet That shall never call retreat; He is sifting out the hearts of men Before His judgement seat; Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him; Be jubilant, my feet; Our God is marching on. Chorus In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea, With a glory in His bosom That transfigures you and me; As He died to make men holy, Let us die to make men free; While God is marching on. Chorus 用这个旋律还有几首在军队里唱的歌, 版本挺多的, 其中比较狠的是下面这个: (也是我在电视剧里听到的那个, 降落伞兵们唱的) What a Way to Die We are reckless parachutists At least that's what we're told But when action stations sounded Then you don't feel quite so bold When the press is euphemistic We're the heroes of the sky But we feel deep down inside us "What a terrible way to die" CHORUS Glory, glory what a terrible of a way to die! Glory, glory what a terrible of a way to die! Glory, glory what a terrible of a way to die! What a terrible way to die Up with the floor, up with the floor And our poor old knees are tremblin' Stand to the door, stand to the door And we're seeing scores of gremlins Red light on - green light on Out though the hole we go Gasping for breath, battered half to death Drifting down to earth below CHORUS Now there's some who jump to glory And there's some who jump to fame If your parachute don't open You'll get there just the same There's a big court of inquiry And the packer gets the sack But there's nothing in creation That will ever bring you back CHORUS 其它版本无论歌词怎么变, 总离不开 Glory Glory 什么什么的. 1983年, 曼联打进足总杯决赛, 于是发行了现在我们耳熟能详的 <Glory Glory Man United> Glory, glory, Man United, Glory, glory, Man United, Glory, glory, Man United, And the reds go marching on, on, on. Just like the Busby Babes in Days gone by We'll keep the Red Flags flying high You've got to see yourself from far and wide You've got to hear the masses sing with pride United! Man United! We're the boys in Red and we're on our way to Wem-ber-ly Wem-ber-ly! Wem-ber-ly! We're the famous Man United and we're going to Wem-ber-ly Wem-ber-ly! Wem-ber-ly! We're the famous Man United and we're going to Wem-ber-ly In Seventy-Seven it was Docherty Atkinson will make it Eighty-Three And everyone will know just who we are They'll be singing 'Que Sera Sera' United! Man United! We're the boys in Red and we're on our way to Wem-ber-ly Wem-ber-ly! Wem-ber-ly! We're the famous Man United and we're going to Wem-ber-ly Wem-ber-ly! Wem-ber-ly! We're the famous Man United and we're going to Wem-ber-ly Glory, glory, Man United, Glory, glory, Man United, Glory, glory, Man United, And the reds go marching on, on, on. (3x) 不过, 作为曼联球迷也应该知道, 最早唱这个旋律是热刺的球迷. 但是把这个旋律发扬光大的是曼联 :) ----
