歌词
Ah, my God what is this land of America?
啊,我的上帝,美国的土地怎会如此神奇?
So many people travelling there
有那么多人不惜千里而去
I will go too for I am still young
我也将前往,趁着年轻气盛
God the Lord will grant me good luck there
在那里上帝会给予我好运气
You, my wife stay here 'til you hear from me
你,我的妻子,请留下等候我的音讯
When you get my letter, put everything in order
你若收到我的来信,整理好行李
Mount a raven black steed, a horse like the wind
骑上乌黑的骏马,如风一般
Fly across the ocean to join me here
越过大洋,在那里与我相逢
Ah, but when she arrived in this strange land
啊,但当她踏上这片陌生的土地
Here in McKeesport, this valley, this valley of fire
在麦基斯波特,这山谷,这火的山谷
Only hs grave, his blood did she find
她找到的,只有他的坟墓、他的鲜血
Over it, bitterly she cried
她看着,已泣不成声
Ah, my husband, what've you done to this family of yours?
啊,我的丈夫,你对你的家人做了什么?
What can you say to these children, to these children you've orphaned?
你该怎么告诉这些孩子,你抛下的孩子?
Tell them my wife not to wait, not to wait, not to wait for me
告诉他们,我的妻子,不必再等我了
Tell them I lie here, in the American land
告诉他们,我已长眠于此,在美国的土地
