歌词与中文翻译
I went out to the hazel wood
因脑海中燃起火焰，
Because a fire was in my head
我外出到榛树林，
And cut and peeled a hazel wand
割掉一根嫩枝去皮，
And hooked a berry to a thread
将线吊起浆果；
And when white moths were on the wing
当白色的飞蛾振翅而起，
And moth-like stars were flickering out
飞蛾似的群星也闪烁着幽光。
I dropped the berry in a stream
我把浆果扔进小溪，
And caught a little silver trout
钓起银色小鳟鱼一条。
When I had laid it on the floor
我把它放在地上，
I went to blow the fire a-flame
去把火焰吹得炙热，
And something rustled on the floor
地板上有什么簌簌作响，
And some one called me by my name
有人叫着我的名字，
It had become a glimmering girl
它变成泛着微光的姑娘，
With apple blossom in her hair
苹果花瓣嵌于发间，
She called me by my name and ran
她叫了我的名字跑开，
And faded through the brightening air
在光亮的空气中销于踪迹 。
Though I am old with wandering
尽管我老于漫游之路
Through hollow lands and hilly lands
穿越绵延丘陵山岗，
I will find out where she has gone
我定要追寻她踪影，
And kiss her lips and take her hands
吻她的唇，牵她的手；
And walk among long dappled grass
沿着斑驳草地长长漫步，
And pluck till time and times are done
去采摘
The silver apples of the moon
月亮的银苹果，
The golden apples of the sun
太阳的金苹果
The silver apples of the moon
月亮的银苹果，
The golden apples of the sun
太阳的金苹果，直到时间无涯岁月苍老
