A feu de joie (French: "fire of joy") is a form of formal celebratory gunfire consisting of a celebratory rifle salute, described as a "running fire of guns." As soldiers fire into the air sequentially in rapid succession, the cascade of blank rounds produces a characteristic "rat-tat-tat" effect. It is used on rare landmark occasions of national rejoicing. During the 18th and 19th centuries, a feu de joie has celebrated a military victory or birthday. In recent years, it has marked, in Royal presence, the 80th Birthday and Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II, as well as the Death of Queen Elizabeth II. Feux de joie also mark annual national or army days in, e.g., Canada, Malta, Nepal and Singapore.

  • 欢乐之火(英語:Feu de joie,语源自法语“篝火”)是源自英国,利用步枪营造气氛的喜庆仪式,呈现的方式是由成列的步枪队对空中连续发出枪响,制造出“啪——哒——哒——”的声效。这种仪式是用在全国欢庆的庆典中,在18-19世纪时,只有在庆贺军事胜利和君主诞辰的场合才会使用。英国最近一次出现这种仪式,是在庆贺英女王伊丽莎白二世80岁诞辰和钻禧的庆典。 在英国以外,、澳洲、纽西兰国防军和新加坡国庆庆典也有“欢乐之火”的传统和仪式。 (zh)
