歌词
Oh, Mary, this London's a wonderful sight
玛丽 伦敦的景色真是美极了
With people here working by day and by night
人们在这里从白天忙到黑夜
They don't sow potatoes nor barley nor wheat
他们不种土豆 大麦或小麦
But there's gangs of them diggin' for gold in the street
倒是成群结队地在街上淘着金
At least when I asked them, that's what I was told
至少我问他们时就是这样告诉我的
So I just took a hand at this diggin' for gold
所以我也加入了他们的队伍
But for all that I've found there, I might as well be
不过不管我在这儿淘到了什么 我可能还是想
In the place where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea
回到莫恩山的怀抱 聆听海边的潮起潮落
I believe that when writin' a wish you expressed
你曾经写信问我
As to how the fine ladies in London were dressed
伦敦的太太小姐们都是如何打扮的
But if you'll believe me, when asked to a ball
信不信由你 她们参加舞会时
They don't wear no tops to their dresses at all
连衣裙外面从来不会披上外套
Oh, I've seen them myself and you could not in truth
呵呵这些是我亲眼所见 你来了就知道
Tell if they were bound for a ball or a bath
她们除了舞会和洗澡其他啥也不干
Don't be startin' them fashions now, Mary McRee,
玛丽 不用羡慕她们的时尚打扮
In the place where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea
因为此刻你正在莫恩山的怀抱之中 聆听海边的潮起潮落
There's beautiful girls here, oh, never you mind
这里的女孩都很漂亮 哈哈先别生气
Beautiful shapes Nature never designed
她们的身材天生丽质
Lovely complexions of roses and cream
脸如香玫 肤如凝脂
But let me remark with regard to the same
但依我看啊
That if at those roses you venture to sit
如果你想去亲吻那些玫瑰
The colors might all come away on your lip
你或许会失去自己唇上的鲜红光泽
So I'll wait for the wild rose that's waitin' for me
所以我更愿等候那朵为我绽放的野玫瑰
In the place where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea
回到莫恩山的怀抱 聆听海边的潮起潮落
You remember young Danny McClaren, of course
你一定还记得年轻的迪迪 麦克劳伦
But he's over here with the rest of the force
他和我们一起来的伦敦
I saw him one day as he stood on the strand
后来有一天我看到他站在河岸上
Stopped all the traffic with a wave of his hand
挥挥手就叫停了河里所有的船
As we were talking of days that are gone
我们看着岸上的人
The whole town of London stood there to look on
伦敦也站在那里看着我们
But for all his great powers, he's wishful like me
尽管他现在位高权重 却和我一样渴望
To be back where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea
回到莫恩山的怀抱 聆听海边的潮起潮落
