Текст песни The Regiment Lives on (John Edmond) с переводом

Back in 1889 a regiment was born

And her mounted troopers

Rode in sunshine and in storm

From Betchualaland to the mighty Zambezi

Known by many names she was the

BSAP

Come ye troopers of old

Where’re ye may be

Drink a century toast to the BSAP

And we’ll sing a couple of bars

Of the good old kum a kye song

To the BSAP and the Regiment lives on !

She has served in war and peace

Had glory and has bled

A multi sided role in a land where she was bred

The guardian of the country she was always there

Like the trooper that was moulded on the Morris Depot Square

Come ye troopers of old

Where’re ye may be

Drink a century toast to the BSAP

And we’ll sing a couple of bars

Of the good old kum a kye song

To the BSAP and the Regiment lives on !

Old black boots name our chum

Reservists may grow old

And far to many have done their very last patrol

Last bobby on his beat, last airman in the sky

Last B girl on the radio the Legend cannot die

Come ye troopers of old

Where’re ye may be

Drink a century toast to the BSAP

And we’ll sing a couple of bars

Of the good old kum a kye song

To the BSAP and the Regiment lives on !

At the outposts of the world

The regiment lives on

In the land of the Silver Fern, Australia and Hong Kong

In Britain’s misty Isle beneath American skies

In Africa her birthplace the spirit never dies

Come ye troopers of old

Where’re ye may be

Drink a century toast to the BSAP

And we’ll sing a couple of bars

Of the good old kum a kye song

To the BSAP and the Regiment lives on !

To the BSAP and the Regiment lives on !

To the BSAP and the Regiment lives on !
