歌词与中文翻译
There was a wealthy merchant
曾有一个富有的商人
In London he did dwell
居住在伦敦
关于他那美丽动人的女儿
He had a beautiful daughter
我将为你讲述她的故事
The truth to you we'll tell
嗯 一个真实的故事
她虽有情人众多
Oh the truth to you we'll tell
名流贵族环绕
可惟有水手杰克
She had sweethearts a plenty
才是她心头挚爱
And men of high degree
真爱所属
杰克纵依依不舍
But none but jack the sailor
不得不出海远航
Her true love ever be
告别了热爱的祖国
抛下了心爱的姑娘
Oh her true love ever be
唉 心爱的姑娘
她走入一家裁缝店
Jackie's gone a sailing
换上了男人的行装
With trouble on his mind
混上一艘船就此而去
嗯 就此而去
He's left his native country
“上船之前，先生
And his darling girl behind
请登记一下姓名”
她沉静一笑
Oh his darling girl behind
杰克阿罗
嗯 他们都这么叫我
She went down to a tailor shop
“我看你的腰这么柔软无力
And dressed in man's array
手指这么柔嫩纤细
脸颊如此红润精致
She climbed on board a vessel to convey herself away
哪能面对连天炮火呢
如何面对连天炮火”
Oh convey herself away
我知道我的腰太过柔软
我的手指太过纤细
Before you get on board sir
可总是枪林弹雨
Your name we'd like to know
也不会使我胆怯分毫
弹雨枪林也不胆怯
She smiled on her countenance
战争不久落幕 她奔赴战场四处找寻
They called me jack a roe
在茫茫死者伤员之间 觅到了她的心上人
噢 她觅到了心上的人
Oh they called me jack a roe
她拥他入怀
送至镇上
I see your waist is slender
托人请来医生快速疗愈他的创伤
Your fingers they are small
嗯 他的创伤不久便愈合
这对佳人走入教堂将终身相许
Your cheeks too red and rosy
交换誓言的为什么不能是你我呢
To face the cannonball
为什么不能是你和我
Oh to face the cannonball
I know my waist's to slender
My fingers they are small
But it would not make me tremble
To see ten thousand fall
Oh to see ten thousand fall
The war soon being over she went and looked around
Among the dead and wounded her darling boy she found
Oh her darling boy she found
She picked him up on in her arms and carried him
To the town
She sent for a physician to quickly heal his wounds
Oh to quickly heal his wounds
This couple they got married so well they did agree
This couple they got married so why not you and me
Oh why not you and me
