歌词
After the morning there comes an evening
白昼之后是黑夜的到来
And after the evening another day
黑夜之后迎来新的一天
And after a false love there comes a true love
挥别错爱迎接真情
I'd have you listen now to what I say
我需要你的倾听
I swear my love is the finest young man
我发誓,我的爱人是最好的年轻男人
As fair as any the sun shines on
就像一缕缕阳光一样英俊
But how to save him, I do not know it
但是我不知道我该怎样救他
For he has got a sentence to be hung
他被判处绞刑
As he was marching the streets of Derry
正在德里的街上游行
I own he marched up right manfully
我承认他的步伐非常雄伟
Being much more like a commanding officer
就像指挥千军万马的指挥官
Than a man to die upon the gallows tree
哪里像一个即将被执行绞刑的男人
"What keeps my love so long in coming
“是什么让我的爱人在来的路上耽误这么久
Oh what detains her so long from me
或者是什么阻碍了她,这么久都没到我这里来
Or does she think it a shame or scandal
又或者是她认为这是羞耻的
To see me die upon the gallows tree"
看到我死在绞刑架上”
He looked around and he saw her coming
他环顾四周终于看到她的到来
And she was dressed all in woollen fine
她穿着漂亮的羊毛衫
The weary steed that my love was riding
我们的爱就像骑在疲惫的战马上
It flew more swifftly than the wind
它比风还要快
Come down, come down from that cruel gallows
快把他从绞刑架上解下来
I've got your pardon from the king
我从国王那里得到了赦免
And I'll let them see that they dare not hang you
我要让他们看到他们不敢伤你
And I'll crown my love with a bunch of green
我要用绿色的花环为我们的爱情加冕
