'Last Post' nghĩa là (quân sự) kèn thổi lúc tiễn đưa một người lính về nơi an nghỉ cuối cùng (either a B♭ bugle call within British infantry regiments, or an E♭ cavalry trumpet call in British cavalry and Royal Regiment of Artillery, and is used at Commonwealth military funerals, and ceremonies commemorating those who have been killed in war).
Ví dụ
The Menin Gate is inscribed with the names of 54,896 names of WWI commonwealth soldiers who's bodies were never identified. Everynight the Last Post is played in their honour.
From 6pm that same evening, the Wolverton Town Band will play various pieces and The Last Post at Milton Keynes Museum, in a project involving brass bands from all over the British Isles in support of Battle’s Over, the nation’s tribute to the 100th anniversary of the end of the First World War.
Bugles (kèn, tù và) to their lips, one white-gloved hand behind their backs, they play the “Last Post.” A lone violinist sways in the middle of the street, playing “Danny Boy.” A quartet fills the space with a mournful (buồn rầu, ảm đạm, tang tóc, thê lương) hymn (bài thánh ca, bài hát ca tụng) from another century:
Fading away like the stars of the morning,
Losing their light in the glorious sun
Thus would we pass from the earth and its toiling,
Only remembered by what we have done.
Phạm Hạnh
