歌词
Near Banbridge town, in the County Down
班布里奇镇附近
One morning last July
去年七月的一个清晨
Down a bóithrín green came a sweet colleen
从乡村田野里来了一位可爱的少女
And she smiled as she passed me by.
她微笑着与我擦肩而过
Oh she looked so sweet from her two bare feet
哦，她是如此可爱，从她赤裸的双脚
To the sheen of her nut brown hair.
到她一头栗色的长发
Such a winsome elf, that I pinched myself
她是如此可爱，令我心神不宁
For to see I was standing there.
为了与她相遇，我在此等待
And from Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay
从班布里湾到德里港
And from Galway to Dublin town
从格尔维到都柏林
No maid I've seen like the sweet colleen
我从未遇到这样美丽的少女
That I met in the county down.
我在乡下遇到她
As she onward sped, well I scratched my head,
我无从寻找她，我只能无力挠头
And I looked with a feelin' rare,
我从未有过这样的感觉
And I say's, say's I, to a passer-by,
我向一个过路人询问
"Who's that maid with the nut-brown hair?"
那个栗色头发的姑娘是谁
Oh he smiled at me and he said, say's he,
他微笑着回答我
"She's the gem of Ireland's crown.
她是爱尔兰王冠上的宝石
Young Rosie McCann from the banks of the Bann,
班恩河畔的小罗茜麦肯
She's the star of the county down."
她是乡村之星
And from Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay
从班布里湾到德里港
And from Galway to Dublin town,
从格尔维到都柏林
No maid I've seen like the sweet colleen
我从未遇到这样美丽的少女
That I met in the county down.
我在乡下遇到她
Well I've travelled a bit, but I've never been hit
我四处寻找，但都没有结果
Since my roving career began
从我开始寻找
But fair and square I surrendered there
所以我只能在此等候
To the charms of young Rose McCann.
充满魅力的小罗茜麦肯
With a heart to let and no tenant yet
和她从未恋爱过的心
Did I meet with in shawl or gown
我穿着披肩和礼服遇见了她
But in she went and I asked no rent
但是我不知道她又去了哪
From the star of the County Down.
来自乡村之星
From the Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay
从班布里湾到德里港
And from Galway to Dublin town
从格尔维到都柏林
No maid I've seen like the sweet colleen

That I met in the county down.
