Inno dei Marines

Descrizione

In questo brano i flauti soprano 1°, contralto e tenore hanno le maggiori difficoltà, sia per l’estensione che per la presenza di alcune note alterate. Chitarra e flauto 2° suonano una parte facile. Delle due percussioni, il triangolo ha una parte molto facile, mentre quella del tamburo è più impegnativa.

Inno dei marines
From the Halls of Montezuma,
To the shores of Tripoli;
We fight our country’s battles
In the air, on land, and sea;
First to fight for right and freedom
And to keep our honor clean;
We are proud to claim the title
Of United States Marines.Our flag’s unfurled to every breeze
From dawn to setting sun;
We have fought in ev’ry clime and place
Where we could take a gun;
In the snow of far-off Northern lands
And in sunny tropic scenes;
You will find us always on the job
The United States Marines.

Here’s health to you and to our Corps
Which we are proud to serve;
In many a strife we’ve fought for life
And never lost our nerve;
If the Army and the Navy
Ever look on Heaven’s scenes;
They will find the streets are guarded
By United States Marines.
