我们是一群兄弟、我们是土里生土里长ˇ
爲诚实劳动而得的财産ˇ我们共同奋战ˇ
我们的权利受威胁时ˇˇ群氨愦釉督ˇ穑ˇbr>
万岁ˇ爲了饰有一颗星的美丽的蓝旗。
(合唱)
万岁ˇ万岁ˇ爲了南方的权利!万岁ˇ
万岁ˇ爲了饰有一颗星的美丽的蓝旗。
只要联邦信守她的职责ˇ
我们就会ˇ朋友兄弟一般友好公平ˇ
但是ˇ北方ˇ在背信弃义ˇ损害我们的权利ˇ
我们要高高升起饰有一颗星的美丽的蓝旗。
首先是勇敢的南卡罗来纳表明崇高的立场ˇ
然后是亚拉巴马来和她手连手ˇ
紧接着是密西西比、乔治亚和佛罗里达ˇ
我们都高举起饰有一颗星的美丽的蓝旗。
你们是勇敢的人ˇ聚集在正义的旗帜下ˇ
得克萨斯和美丽的路易斯安那都参加我们的战斗ˇ
戴维斯是我们敬爱的总统ˇ史蒂文斯是难得的政治家ˇ
ˇ在都聚集在饰有一颗星的美丽的蓝旗下。
勇敢的维吉尼亚ˇ老资格的自治领ˇ让我们爲她欢呼ˇ
她终于将自己的命运和年轻的邦联连在一起ˇ
ˇ在其它州受到她榜样的鼓舞ˇ
也准备高举起饰有一颗星的美丽的蓝旗。
那麽欢呼吧ˇ孩子们ˇ欢呼ˇ痛快地喊吧ˇ
阿肯色州和北卡罗来纳ˇ在都出来啦ˇ
我们还要爲田纳西州高声欢呼ˇ
美丽的蓝旗上一颗星已增到十一颗。
爲我们的邦联欢呼吧ˇ我们强壮又勇敢ˇ
就ˇ古时的爱国者ˇ我们爲拯救传统而战ˇ
我们宁死也不甘屈服受辱ˇ
爲饰有一颗星的美丽的蓝旗欢呼吧。

The Bonnie Blue Flag
We are
a band of brothers, and native to the soil,
Fighting for the property we gained by honest toil;
And when our rights were threatened, the cry rose near and far;
Hurrah! for the bonnie blue flag that bears a Single star
CHORUS:
Hurrah! hurrah! for Southern rights! hurrah!
Hurrah! for the bonnie blue flag that bears a single star
As long
as the Union was faithful to her trust,
Like friends and like brothers, kind were we and just;
But now, when Northern treachery attempts our rights to mar,
We hoist, on high, the bonnie blue flag that bears a single star.
First
gallant South Carolina nobly made the stand,
Then came Alabama who took her by the hand;
Next, quickly Mississippi, Georgia and Florida,
All raised, on high, the bonnie blue flag that bears a single star.
Ye men
of valor, gather ‘round the banner of the right,
Texas
and fair Louisianna join us in the fight
Davis, our loved President, and Stevens, statesman rare,
Now rally 'round the bonnie blue flag that bears a single star.
And
here’s to brave
Virginia,
the old Dominion State,
With the young Confederacy, at length, has linked her fate;
Impelled by her example now other States prepare
To hoist, on high, the bonnie blue flag that bears a single star.
Then
cheer, boys, cheer, raise the joyous shout--
For Arkansas and North Carolina now have both gone out;
And let another rousing cheer for Tennessee be given--
The single star of the bonnie blue flag has grown to be eleven.
Then
here's to our Confederacy--strong we are and brave,
Like patriots of old, we’ll fight our heritage to save;
And rather than submit to shame, to die we would prefer--
So cheer for the bonnie blue flag that bears a single star.
