[00:00.000] 作曲 : Author Unknown[00:00.183]You working men of England one moment now attend[00:05.503]While I unfold the treatment of the poor upon this land[00:11.015]For nowadays the factory lords have brought the labour low[00:15.804]And daily are contriving plans to prove our overthrow[00:21.910]So arouse! You sons of freedom! The world seems upside down[00:29.883]They scorn the poor man as a thief in country and in town[00:38.406][00:38.937]There's different parts in Ireland, it's true what I do state[00:44.782]There's hundreds more are starving for they can't get food to eat[00:49.780]And if they go unto the rich to ask them for relief[00:54.306]They bang their door all in their face as if they were a thief[01:00.691]So arouse! You sons of freedom! The world seems upside down[01:08.672]They scorn the poor man as a thief in country and in town[01:17.266][01:17.269]Alas how altered are the times, rich men despise the poor[01:23.098]And pay them off without remorse, quite scornful at their door[01:28.671]And if a man is out of work his Parish pay is small[01:33.741]It's enough to starve himself and wife, his children and all[01:39.328]So arouse! You sons of freedom! The world seems upside down[01:46.769]They scorn the poor man as a thief in country and in town[01:55.256][01:55.792]So to conclude and finish these few verses I have made[02:01.364]I hope to see before it's long men for their labour paid[02:07.469]Then we'll rejoice with heart and voice and banish all our woes[02:12.525]But before we do old England must pay us what she owes[02:18.631]So arouse! You sons of freedom! The world seems upside down[02:26.593]They scorn the poor man as a thief in country and in town[02:34.842]So arouse! You sons of freedom! The world seems upside down[02:44.397]They scorn the poor man as a thief in country and in town
