[00:04.447] Oh have you heard the glorious news, is the cry from every mouth,
[00:08.644] Charleston is taken, and the rebels put to rout;
[00:13.708] And Beauregard the chivalrous, he ran to save his bacon—
[00:18.376] When he saw General Sherman’s “Yanks,” and “Charleston is taken!”
[00:23.743] With a whack, rowdy-dow,
[00:25.499] A hunkey boy is General Sherman,
[00:28.023] Whack, rowdy-dow,
[00:30.143] Invincible is he!
[00:32.389]
[00:38.191] This South Carolina chivalry, they once did loudly boast,
[00:42.033] That the footsteps of a Union man, should ne’er pollute their coast.
[00:46.649] They’d fight the Yankees two to one, who only fought for booty,
[00:51.285] But when the “udsills” came along it was “Legs, do your duty!”
[00:57.249] With a whack, rowdy-dow,
[00:58.690] Babylon is fallen,
[01:01.053] Whack, rowdy-dow,
[01:03.628] The end is drawing near!
[01:05.954]
[01:11.705] And from the “Sacred City,” this valiant warlike throng;
[01:15.526] Skedaddled in confusion, although thirty thousand strong—
[01:20.315] Without a shot, without a blow, or least sign of resistance,
[01:25.556] And leaving their poor friends behind, with the “Yankees” for assistance!
[01:30.756] With a whack, rowdy-dow,
[01:32.765] How are you, Southern chivalry?
[01:35.404] Whack, rowdy-dow,
[01:37.570] Your race is nearly run!
[01:39.246]
[01:44.436] And again o’er Sumter’s battered walls, the Stars and Stripes do fly,
[01:49.234] While the chivalry of Sixty-one in the “Last ditch” lie;—
[01:53.924] With Sherman, Grant and Porter too, to lead our men to glory,
[01:59.244] We’ll squash poor Jeff’s confederacy, and then get “Hunkydory!”
[02:04.094] With a whack, rowdy-dow,
[02:06.713] How are you, neutral Johnny Bull?
[02:08.985] Whack, rowdy-dow,
[02:12.268] We’ll settle next with you!
[00:04.447] Oh have you heard the glorious news, is the cry from every mouth,
[00:08.644] Charleston is taken, and the rebels put to rout
[00:13.708] And Beauregard the chivalrous, he ran to save his bacon

[00:04.447] 哦我的朋友,你听说了联邦光荣的战绩吗,没错,就数个月以来一直在在说的:
[00:08.644] 我们攻下了查尔斯顿!叛军被我们彻底荡平了
[00:13.708] 当Beauregard,那仗义的人,他跑去救了他的信标(译注:Pierre Gustave Toutant Beauregard,原为美国陆军少校,美国内战期间担任美利坚联盟国军队(南军)上将)
[00:18.376] 他见到谢尔曼将军,欢呼道:“扬基军队,查尔斯顿被我们夺取了!”(译注:William Tecumseh Sherman,在美国南北战争(1861–1865)期间担任联邦军的将军)
[00:23.743] 伴随着游行的吵闹
[00:25.499] 那个中间的匈牙利裔小子(????这里的用词特别奇怪,翻译得如有纰漏,希望有人指正)就是谢尔曼将军
[00:28.023] 伴随着游行的吵闹
[00:30.143] 我们称赞,无敌的谢尔曼将军啊
[00:38.191] 南卡罗来纳州的“绅士”们,曾经大声地夸耀:
[00:42.033] 绝对不会让联邦的乡巴佬来到南卡罗来纳,玷污这里的土地
[00:46.649] 他们宁愿和扬基(指北方联邦)佬二比一作战,因为他们觉得扬基佬懦弱不堪,只为了战利品而战斗
[00:51.285] 但是当James Henry Hammond发表“泥浆理论”(这个理论详情我在评论区普及)的时候,联盟就要求自己的年轻人们:去战斗,为了联盟,去战斗
[00:57.249] 然而,欢呼声还是属于北方
[00:58.690] 巴比伦也沦陷了
[01:01.053] 欢呼吧
[01:03.628] 战争就要结束了,荣耀属于联邦
[01:11.705] 查尔斯顿吓坏了,纵使有这些英勇强壮的“绅士”们
[01:15.526] 纵使还有三万士兵,查尔斯顿还是投降了(译注:此处应该指内战中1865年的查尔斯顿战役,查尔斯顿港在这次战役中没有做过多抵抗,即向谢尔曼将军的联邦军队投降了)
[01:20.315] 没有开一枪,没有一声爆炸,甚至没有抵抗的痕迹
[01:25.556] 因为,他们抛弃了自己的种植园主伙伴们,而向自己看不起的“扬基佬”求助了!
[01:30.756] 欢呼吧,欢呼吧
[01:32.765] 现在是谁赢了,你们这帮骄傲的南方“贵族”
[01:35.404] 欢呼吧,欢呼吧
[01:37.570] 你的比赛就要结束了!
[01:44.436] 如今,在萨姆特破烂的城墙内,星条旗高高飘扬
[01:49.234] 六十一个英勇的战士做出了最后一博,可惜他们都死了---
[01:53.924] 现在,谢尔曼将军,格兰特将军还有波特将军(译注:均为联邦将领),他们才是真正应当带领人民走向胜利的人!
[01:59.244] 我们将击败可怜的同盟,然后说“ 好呀!”
[02:04.094] 欢呼吧,欢呼吧
[02:06.713] 你们好啊,“中立”的约翰牛(译注:约翰牛指英国,这里应该是在反讽英国在美国内战期间对南方同盟施以援手,并对联邦采取封锁的行为)
[02:08.985] 欢呼啊!
[02:12.268] 联邦与你同在!!!
