整歌词
Yo, ho, haul together, hoist the colours high Heave ho, thieves and beggars, never shall we die The king and his men stole the queen from her bed And bound her in her bones The seas be ours and by the powers Where we will we'll roamYo, ho, haul together, hoist the colours high Heave ho, thieves and beggars, never shall we die Some men have died and some are alive And others sail on the sea With the keys to the cage and the Devil to pay We lay to Fiddler's Green
Yo, ho, haul together, hoist the colours high Heave ho, thieves and beggars, never shall we die The bell has been raised from its watery grave Do you hear its sepulchral tone? We are a call to all, pay head the squall And turn your sail toward home
Yo, ho, haul together, hoist the colours high Heave ho, thieves and beggars, never shall we die
歌词以“Yo, ho”的呼号开篇，模拟海盗们拉帆时的号子声，“hoist the colours high”直白点出“升起旗帜”的核心意象——这里的“colours”即海盗的骷髅旗，象征着对权威的挑战与对自由的捍卫。副歌“never shall we die”反复出现，既是对死亡的蔑视，也暗喻海盗精神的永恒。歌词中“国王与士兵偷走王后”“大海属于我们”等句子，构建了一个反抗强权、追逐自由的世界，与电影中海盗联盟对抗东印度公司的剧情深度契合。
