歌词:
Goodbye England's Rose
永别了，我们的英国玫瑰，
May you ever grow in our hearts
愿你永远盛开在我们心中。
You were the grace that placed itself
你是仁慈的化身，
Where lives were torn apart
关怀庇护颠沛流离的人们。
You called out to our country
你向我们的国家大声疾呼，
And you whispered to those in pain
你对苦难中的人轻声安慰。
Now you belong to heaven
现在你已去往天堂，
And the stars spell out your name
群星也将你的名字闪耀。
And it seems to me you lived your life
你的一生，
Like a candle in the wind
就像是风中之烛，
Never fading with the sunset
即使大雨倾盆不止。
When the rain set in
光芒从不随夕阳消失。
And your footsteps will always fall here
而你的足音将永远回响
Along England's greenest hills
在英国最青翠的山岗上。
Your candle's burned out long before
蜡烛终会燃尽，
Your legend ever will
你的传奇却将永世不朽。
Loveliness we've lost
我们已经失去这可爱的人，
These empty days without your smile
在没有你的笑容的空虚日子里。
This torch we'll always carry
我们将永远高举这火炬，
For our nation's golden child
来纪念英国最高贵的天使。
And even though we try,
即使我们强忍悲痛，
The truth brings us to tears
事实依旧让人流泪哽咽。
All our words cannot express,
我们所有的言语都无法道尽。
The joy you brought us through the years
这些年来你带给我们的温暖和喜悦。
Goodbye England's Rose
永别了，我们的英国玫瑰，
May you ever grow in our hearts

You were the grace that placed itself

Where lives were torn apart
关怀庇护颠沛流离的人们。
Goodbye England's Rose,
永别了，我们的英国玫瑰，
From a country lost without your soul,
失去你的这个国家深感失落。
Who'll miss the wings of your compassion,
你永远不会知道，我们将多么怀念，
More than you'll ever know
你那颗善良悲悯的心。
And it seems to me you lived your life
你的一生，
Like a candle in the wind
就像是风中之烛，
Never fading with the sunset
即使大雨倾盆不止。
When the rain set in
光芒从不随夕阳消失。
And your footsteps will always fall here
而你的足音将永远回响
Along England's greenest hills
在英国最青翠的山岗上。
Your candle's burned out long before
