歌词
As I went out one morning
当我早上出去时
To breathe the air around Tom Paine’s
呼吸着汤姆·潘恩家附近的空气
I spied the fairest damsel
我暗中注视这这个美丽女人
That ever did walk in chains
拖着铁链徐徐走着
I offer’d her my hand
我向她伸出了我的手
She took me by the arm
她抓住了我的手臂
I knew that very instant
我立马反应过来
She meant to do me harm
她打算伤害于我
“Depart from me this moment”“
马上从我身边滚开”
I told her with my voice
我大声对她说
Said she, “But I don’t wish to”
她说 “但我不愿离去”
Said I, “But you have no choice”
我说 “但你无从选择”
“I beg you, sir,” she pleaded“
我求你了 先生” 她恳求道
From the corners of her mouth
确实发自她的心声
“I will secretly accept you“
我会秘密接纳你
And together we’ll fly south”
然后一起飞往南方”
music
Just then Tom Paine, himself
就在那时 汤姆·潘恩本人
Came running from across the field
从田野对面一路奔来
Shouting at this lovely girl
对着这个可爱的女孩大喊大叫
And commanding her to yield
命令她必须绝对服从
And as she was letting go her grip
当她正伺机撬开锁链
Up Tom Paine did run,
汤姆·潘恩又跑到我跟前
“I’m sorry, sir,” he said to me“
对不起 先生”他向我解释
“I’m sorry for what she’s done”“
我对她的无礼举动深感抱歉”
