Pile the bodies high at Austerlitz and Waterloo
Shovel them under and let me work.
I am the grass;I cover all.
And pile them high at Gettysbury
And pile them high at Ypres and Verdun.
Shovel them under and let me work.
Tow years,ten years,and passengers ask the conductor:
What place is this?
Where are we now?
I am the grass.
Let me work.

　　将尸体堆砌在奥斯特里茨和滑铁卢，
将它们铲到坑里，然后让我来做。
我是草，我覆盖一切。
将尸体堆砌在葛底斯堡，
将尸体堆砌在伊普尔和凡尔登，
将它们铲到坑里，然后让我来做。
两年、十年之后，旅客问乘务员：
这是什么地方？
我们现在在哪？
我是草，
让我来做。
