AJÁNLOM AZ OLDALT
Az ldozatok tiszteletre 2001 ta a szurkolk minden vben, februr 6-hoz a legkzelebb es hazai mrkzs napjn sszegylnek a Mncheni Tragdia Emlktbljnl s kzsen elneklik a 'The Flowers of Manchester' cm dalt.
One cold and bitter Thursday in Munich, Germany,
Eight great football stalwarts conceded victory,
Eight men who will never play again who met destruction there,
The flowers of English football, the flowers of Manchester
Matt Busby's boys were flying, returning from Belgrade,
This great United family, all masters of their trade,
The Pilot of the aircraft, the skipper Captain Thain,
Three times they tried to take off and twice turned back again.
The third time down the runaway disaster followed close,
There was a slush upon that runaway and the aircraft never rose,
It ploughed into the marshy ground, it broke, it overturned.
And eight of the team were killed as the blazing wreckage burned.
Roger Byrne and Tommy Taylor who were capped for England's side.
And Ireland's Billy Whelan and England's Geoff Bent died,
Mark Jones and Eddie Colman, and David Pegg also,
They all lost their lives as it ploughed on through the snow.
Big Duncan he went to, with an injury to his frame,
And Ireland's brave Jack Blanchflower will never play again,
The great Sir Matt Busby lay there, the father of his team
Three long months passed by before he walked again.
The trainer, coach and secretary, and a member of the crew,
Also eight sporting journalists who with United flew,
and one of them Big Swifty, who we'll ne'er forget,
the finest English 'keeper that ever graced the net.
Oh, England's finest football team its record truly great,
its proud successes mocked by a cruel turn of fate.
Eight men will never play again, who met destruction there,
the flowers of English football, the flowers of Manchester.

Egy hideg s keser cstrtkn Mnchenben, Nmetorszgban,
Nyolc nagyszer, ers s btor futballista gyzelmet aratott,
Nyolc frfi, akik sosem jtszanak jra, akik ott tallkoztak a vgzettel,
Az angol futball virgai, Manchester virgai.
Matt Busby fiai repltek, hogy visszatrjenek Belgrdbl,
Ez a nagyszer United csald, mind szakmjuk mesterei,
A replgp piltja, a csapatkapitny Thain kapitny,
Hromszor prbltak felszllni s ktszer fordultak vissza.
Harmadszorra letrtek az trl s a katasztrfa hamarosan bekvetkezett,
A kifut jeges volt s a replgp nem emelkedett fel,
Felszntotta a mocsaras fldet, sszetrt, felborult.
A csapat nyolc jtkosa lett vesztette, miutn a lngol roncs felgyulladt.
Roger Byrne s Tommy Taylor, akik az angol vlogatottban jtszottak.
Az r Billy Whelan s az angol Geoff Bent meghalt,
Ahogyan Mark Jones s Eddie Colman, valamint David Pegg is,
Mind letket vesztettk, amikor a gp tgzolt a havon.
A nagy Duncant testi srlsekkel szlltottk el,
s rorszg harcosa Jack Blachflower mr soha nem jtszik jra,
A csods Sir Matt Busby, csapatnak atyja ott fekdt,
Hrom hossz hnap eltelt, mire ismt jrni tudott.
A trner, az edz s titkr, egy szemlyzeti tag,
Tovbb nyolc sportjsgr, akik a Uniteddel repltek,
kzlk egyik Big Swifty volt, akit sosem felednk,
a legnagyszerbb angol kapus, aki valaha is a kapuban llt.
Oh, Anglia legkivlbb futballcsapata, ragyog eredmnyekkel,
tiszteletre mlt sikereit bernykolja egy kegyetlen sorsfordulat.
Nyolc frfi sosem jtszik jra, akik ott tallkoztak a vgzettel,
az angol futball virgai, Manchester virgai.
