Swing Low Sweet Chariot 原本是一首反黑奴的美國民謠。不知為何，也不知何時變成English rugby的註冊商標。因為實在是太久遠，沒人記得是怎麼回事了，現在只能推測可能是因為“旋律單純”與“歌詞簡單且重複”而廣為流行。現在“Swing Low”甚至已經變成Rugby傳統的一部份。在英格蘭主場Twickenham(也是Rugby傳統象徵之一)的英格蘭球迷，就該大聲且自豪的唱著Swing Low。英格蘭國家隊也被暱稱作Sweet Chariot。不過，非英格蘭球迷似乎對這首歌沒什麼好感，稱它為hated song。:P Swing Low, Sweet Chariot Harry Thacker Burleigh, 191? (1866-1949) Swing low, sweet chariot, Comin' for to carry me home! I looked over Jordan and what did I see, Comin' for to carry me home! A band of angels comin' after me, Comin' for to carry me home! Swing low, sweet chariot, Comin' for to carry me home! If you get there before I do, Comin' for to carry me home, Jess tell my friends that I'm acomin' too, Comin' for to carry me home. Swing low, sweet chariot, Comin' for to carry me home! I'm sometimes up and sometimes down, Comin' for to carry me home, But still my soul feels heavenly bound Comin' for to carry me home! -- 當我走進一個房間──總是一個房間，鏡子竟沒有將我認出？ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.230.112.88
