歌词
O the Streams Of rovin' Nancy
哦，延绵不断南锡河
divide in three parts
分成了三段支流
Where the young men and maidens
在那里年轻的男孩和女孩
they meet their sweethearts
会遇上各自的心上人
It's the drinking of good liquor
清澈的河流就像美酒
that makes my heart sing
让我的心不禁歌唱
And the noise in the valley
而荡在谷间的声音
make the rocks for to ring.
会让石头窸窣奏响
At the top of this mountain
在这山峰的顶端上
my love's castle stands
矗立着我喜欢的城堡
And it's overbuilt with ivory
这城堡满是象牙的洁白
on yonder black sand
置于那片乌黑的沙地
Fine arches, fine porches
有精美的拱门和门廊
like diamonds so bright
就如耀眼的钻石般
It's a beacon for a sailor
高得像水手的灯塔
on a dark winter's night.
在冬天的夜里坚立
On yonder high mountain
在远处高高的山上
the wild fowl do fly
野鸟确实会飞翔
And it's one in amongst them
而其中一只在群鸟间
that files very high
飞得异常之高
If I had them in my hands
若我能将它们抓在手上
mere diamonds per grand
我就会论斤卖成钻石
And soon I would secure her
然后我会再将她救出
by the sleight of my hand.
凭靠我娴熟的小手段
在这座山的底下
At the base of this mountain
流着条晶莹剔透的河
a river runs clear
有一艘从印度来的船
And a ship from the Indies
它有一次抛锚在那里
it once anchored there.
船上有一副飘扬的红旗
With her red flags a-flying
敲响船上的鼓声
the beating of her drum
像奏出甜蜜之音的乐器
Sweet instruments of music
听上去也像是枪声
and the firin' of her gun.
哦，延绵不断南锡河
O the streams of lovely Nancy
分成了三段支流
divide in three parts
在那里年轻的男孩和女孩
Where the young men and maidens
会遇上各自的心上人
they meet their sweethearts
清澈的河流就像美酒
It's the drinking of good liquor
让我的心不禁歌唱
that makes my heart sing
而荡在谷间的声音
And the noise in the valley
会让石头窸窣奏响
make the rocks for to ring.
