Hunting Song (BBC Session 1969)

歌词
As I did travel all on a journey
当我在一次旅途中行进
Over the wayside and under a dark moon
在山上悬挂着的
Hanging above a mountain
黯淡月亮下的路旁
I spied a young man
我看到了一个年轻人
Riding a fine horse
骑着一匹骏马
Chasing a white hart and all through the woodland
在追逐一头白鹿
There go the hunting and cries
狩猎和嗥叫声穿过整片森林
And there followed after
接着走过来的
Ten kings and queens
是十个王公贵族
Laughing and joking,
他们嘲笑着
The white hart they'd seen
那头他们看到的白鹿
Bloodied running into the bushes
受伤逃进了灌木丛
I plume to his helmet,
他的头盔
A quiver and a bow
箭袋和弓都使我赏心悦目
There's nowhere to run now, there's no place to go
现在鹿无处可逃
The hunter is fast and ready
猎人又快又准
Still farther
我继续
I journeyed through the hills and the valleys
翻山越岭地走了更远
Until upon the verge of despair
直到绝望的边缘
I sat and rested
我坐下来休息
And there did pass a princely knight
这时一位骑士经过
Pursuit by a lady

And this she did say

"Oh, may I ask you,
鸥,善良的先生
Kind sir, where you are going?"

And pray tell to me,
请告诉我
"Sir, why you do hurry?

Strange that I should meet you here,
说来奇怪,我能在这里遇到你
Come sit by me
那么来陪我坐坐
I have here a magic horn to deliver"

"And one drop from
只要一滴
This silver and gold horn I hold, sir

Shall prove all to be false,

Lovers beware!"

"The gift that you bear for

Your brother the king

I gladly would carry to the banquet this evening

What fair sport this would be
这对皇宫内的女孩们来说
For the maidens at court"
会是一个多么好的消遣啊
Wearily, I crossed the stream to the castle
我疲惫地越过小溪到达了城堡
Where I found shelter from the cold wintry wind
在那里我可以躲避凛风
And food did I have and plenty
我也享用了丰盛的食物
But the Lord and Lady seemed so sad
但是贵族们看起来很悲伤
For these words they did say unto each other
因为他们这样对彼此说
"My good Lord,
我的好大人
All off to war in thy armor

Leaving me here alone to weep and to worry

Take care lest misadventure"

All off to war in thy armor"

Shall stain your heart and lead to woe

While underneath the spreading oak

A knight with white device

Upon a shield of black and deep
带着一块有白色纹章的黑色大盾
In grief and sorrow sings

His unrequited love

Queen Azelda the fairest maid

For I swear to have revenge"

A thousand days have come and passed

The Lord returns this night

The victor from the bloody wars

Proven his fearsome might

As ever he would claim

But fate has played its wanton game

The circle come full turn

Cried "Falseness is found out!"
喊着,背叛出现!
The sorrowed quest is over
