The Pirates of Penzance or The Slave of Duty, Act 1: No. 3, Song, "Oh, better far to live and die" (Pirate King, Pirates) - James Milligan/Glyndebourne Chorus/Pro Arte Orchestra/Sir Malcolm Sargent

作曲：Arthur Sullivan

Oh better far to live and die

Under the brave black flag I fly

Than play a sanctimonious part

With a pirate head and a pirate heart

Away to the cheating world go you

Where pirates all are well-to-do

But I'll be true to the song I sing

And live and die a Pirate King

For I am a Pirate King

And it is it is a glorious thing

To be a Pirate King

For I am a Pirate King

KING

And it is it is a glorious thing

To be a Pirate King

Lyric by WeChat：chuanxi6

ALL

It is

Hurrah for the Pirate King

Hurrah for the Pirate King

KING

When I sally forth to seek my prey I help myself in a royal way

I sink a few more ships it's true

Than a well-bred monarch ought to do

But many a king on a first-class throne

If he wants to call his crown his own

Must manage somehow to get through

More dirty work than e'er I do

For I am a Pirate King

And it is it is a glorious thing

To be a Pirate King

For I am a Pirate King

Lyric by WeChat：chuanxi6

ALL

You are

Hurrah for the Pirate King

KING

And it is it is a glorious thing

To be a Pirate King

ALL

It is Hurrah for the Pirate King

Hurrah for the Pirate King
