歌词
Down in the willow garden
那座柳树公园
Where me and my true love did meet,
是我和我的爱人相会之地
It was there we were courtin',
那是我们结婚的地方
My love fell off to sleep.
我的爱人她昏昏入睡
I had a bottle of burgundy wine,
我饮下醉人的酒
My true love she did not know.
但是她并不知晓
It was there I murdered that dear little girl
那是我谋害这可怜的小女孩的地方
Down on the banks below.
在下方的河堆旁
我用利刃刺穿了她的胸膛
I drew my saber through her,
用那把血淋淋的刀刃
It was a bloody knife,
她被抛弃在河里
I threw her into the river,
那是一个凄惨的景象
It was a horrible sight.
我的父亲常常告诫我
My father often had told me
总有一天会还你自由
That money would set me free
若真是我谋害了那个女孩
If I would murder that poor little girl
那个名叫罗斯·康奈利的女孩
Whose name was Rose Connelly.
现在他伏坐在他的小屋旁
泪花浸润了他的双眼
Now he stands at his cabin door,
凝望着他亲爱的儿子
Wiping his tears from his eyes,
逃避那十字的审判
Gazing on his own dear son,
我的生命就是在阳光下流亡
Upon the scaffold high.
魔鬼静候着我
My race is run beneath the sun,
因为我谋害了那个女孩
The Devil is waiting for me,
那个名叫罗斯·康奈利的女孩
For I did murder that dear little girl
Whose name was Rose Connelly.
