The 6.50 p.m. Bendigo engine crashed into the rear of the 7.15 p.m. Ballarat train. Both trains, crowded with holiday-makers returning to Melbourne, were running late. Forty four passengers in the Ballarat train were killed and over 400 on both trains were injured.」「THE SUNSHINE DISASTER[下線付]」「He was driving a Bendigo engine,/ The train was running all right,/ It was going along as usual/ Till Sunshine came in sight,/ He put on his brakes and he whistled,/ For the signal was against the train,/ He applied his brakes for emergency,/ But alas 'twas all in vain.」「CHORUS[下線付]: If those trains had only run/ As they should, their proper time,/ There wouldn't have been a disaster/ At a place they call Sunshine./ If those brakes had only held/ As they did a few hours before,/ There wouldn't have been a disaster./ And a death-roll of forty four.」「The doctors and nurses arrived there/ And the sight it caused them pain,/ To see all the wounded and dying/ In the wreck of that fateful train,/ The people of Sunshine ne'er faltered,/ But assisted with all their power/ To help the doctors and nurses,/ In that awful and painful hour.」「CHORUS」「If those brakes had only gripped,/ As they did a while before,/ There would be no Sunshine disaster,/ Or deaths numbering forty-four./ If that guard had only seen/ That danger lay ahead,/ There would be no widows or orphans,/ But happier homes instead.」「CHORUS」]。[キーワード]:Australiaオーストラリア、folk song民謡、独唱(女声)、fiddleフィドル(lutes ビワ類2ヴァイオリン)、guitarギター(lutes ビワ類1ビワ)、合奏
