The French composer Charles Gounod is just one of the hundreds of composers and artists who have written on the story of Faust, a legendary scholar who sells his soul to the devil in exchange for human knowledge. This song is sung by a soldier before he leaves for battle, and asks God to take good care of his sister. 〔浮士德〕是古諾最出色的作品之一．劇中一名士兵要赴前線作戰，高歌一曲請求上帝照顧他的妹妹。浮士德是傳說中的一位學者，為了知識，把自己的靈魂與魔鬼交易，很多劇作家及文人都曾以此為題材。
