Land of Hope and Glory


這首 Land of Hope and Glory當然不只在下文的場合,我們在逍遙演唱會 ( the annual summer Proms concerts since 1941)等也常可看到。
最有趣的是在 2008年的:Reborn:Journals and Notebooks, 1947-1963 by Susan Sontag (身後出版品)
(1957) :"在畢業典禮上演唱 Land of Hope and Glory" (中文本,142頁)

A British patriotic song: Land of Hope and Glory.
Land of Hope and Glory is used as the national anthem of England in the Commonwealth Games and some other sporting events. The song was used by the English rugby league team for the national anthem until 2005.


Land of Hope and Glory, 
Mother of the Free,
How shall we extol thee,
Who are born of thee?
Wider still and wider,
Shall thy bounds be set,
God, who made thee mighty,
Make thee mightier yet,
God, who made thee mighty,
Make thee mightier yet.
