歌词与中文翻译
我温柔的威利在大海上航行
My Willie sails on board the tender
我不知道他的所在
where he is I do not know.
我已等待了七年
For seven long years I have been waiting
等待着渡过比斯开湾
to cross the Bay of Biscay-o.
玛丽还在熟睡的时候
Mary was sleeping her love came creeping
她的爱人悄悄走近她的房门
to her bedroom door did go,
说道，起来吧，玛丽，我挚爱的玛丽
Saying, “Rise up, Mary, my lovely Mary,
我是你英俊的威利啊
I'm your charming Willie-o.”
威利，威利
Willie-o.Willie-o.
我是你英俊的威利
I'm your charming Willie-o.”
玛丽起身，穿戴整齐
Mary arose and put on her clothes
走出了卧室
trough her bedroom door did go,
在那里她看到了她的真爱
And there she spared her own true lover
他的脸色如雪般苍白
his face as white as the lily snow.
哦，威利，我亲爱的，你脸上的红晕呢
“Oh, Willie dear, where are those blushes,
那我早已熟知的红润的面颊呢
Those blushes I knew long years ago?”
亲爱的玛丽啊，它们已经被瓷器一般的苍白取代
“Mary dear, while the clay has changed them,
我是你亲爱的威利的鬼魂啊
I'm the ghost of your Willie-o.”
威利，威利
Willie-o.Willie-o.
我是你亲爱的威利的鬼魂
I'm the ghost of your Willie-o.”
他们促夜长谈
They spent the night in deep conversation
谈论着多年前的恋情
Concerning their courtship years ago.
玛丽，我亲爱的，破晓之时
Mary dear, while the dawn is breaking,
我就该离去了
The time has come for me to go.
不得不留你独自心碎
And I must leave you broken-hearted
她的泪水止不住地流
Down her tears they began to flow.
他们亲吻，拥抱，悲伤地道别
They kissed ,he embraced and sorrowfully parted
公鸡啼鸣之时
Just as the cocky began to crow.
公鸡啼鸣之时
began to crow.began to crow.
就在公鸡啼鸣之时
Just as the cocky began to crow.
（玛丽问道）你还会回来么
when will you return again?
当鱼儿飞翔
When the fishes they do fly
当大海干涸
the sea it will run dry
当巨石被阳光融化
And the rocks will melt unto the sun.”
那时候啊
the sun
也许我就会回来了
the rocks will melt unto the sun.
lalala.....
lalala……
