In the county Tyrone
在泰隆县
Near the town of Dungannon
在敦加农镇附近
Where many's the ruction
那里混乱不堪
Meself had a hand in
我亲自出手
Bob Williamson lived there a weaver by trade
鲍勃威廉森住在那里他的职业是纺织工
And all of us thought him a stout Orange blade
我们都以为他是一把结实的橙刃
On the twelfth of July as it yearly did come
在每年的七月十二日
Bob played on the flute to the sound of the drum
鲍勃随着鼓声吹着长笛
You can talk of your fiddles your harp or your lute
你可以谈论你的小提琴你的竖琴你的鲁特琴
But there's nothing could sound like the Old Orange Flute
但没有什么能像OldOrangeFuture一样动听
But the treacherous scoundrel he took us all in
但那个奸诈的恶棍把我们都骗了
For he married a Papist named Bridget McGinn
因为他娶了一个名叫BridgetMcGinn的天主教徒
Turned Papish himself and forsook the Old Cause
自己变成了Papish人放弃了旧事
That gave us our freedom religion and laws
给予我们自由信仰和法律
And the boys in the county made such a stir on it
县里的男孩为此轰动全城
They forced Bob to flee to the province of Connaught
他们强迫鲍勃逃到康诺特省
Took with him his wife and his fixins to boot
带着他的妻子还有他的好货
And along with the rest went the Old Orange Flute
和其他乐器一起演奏的是OldOrangeFuture
Each Sunday at mass to atone for past deeds
每个周日的弥撒弥补过去的过错
Bob said Paters and Aves and counted his beads
鲍勃一边说着Paters和Aves一边数着珠子
Till one Sunday morn at the priest's own require
直到一个星期天的早晨在牧师的要求下
Bob went for to play with the flutes in the choir
鲍勃在唱诗班演奏长笛
He went for to play with the flutes in the mass
他在人群中演奏长笛
But the instrument quivered and cried O Alas
可是乐器在颤动,呼唤着唉
And blow as he would though he made a great noise
尽管他发出了巨大的声音
The flute would play only The Protestant Boys
长笛只会演奏《新教徒的男孩》
Bob jumped up and huffed and was all in a flutter
鲍勃一跃而起,气喘吁吁,心里小鹿乱撞
He pitched the old flute in the blest holy water
他把古老的长笛投进神圣的圣水里
He thought that this charm would bring some other sound
他以为这种魅力会带来别的声音
When he tried it again it played Croppies Lie Down
当他再次尝试的时候音乐响起
And for all he would finger and twiddle and blow
尽管如此他还是会用手指拨弄
For to play Papish music the flute would not go
为了演奏教皇的音乐长笛不会飘
Kick the Pope to Boyne Water was all it would sound
把教皇踢到BoyneWater那里去听起来就像是在唱歌
Not one Papish bleat in it could e'er be found
再也找不到一丝天主教的声音
At a council of priests that was held the next day
在第二天举行的祭司会议上
They decided to banish the Old Flute away
他们决定老弗特
They couldn't knock heresy out of its head
So they bought Bob another to play in its stead
于是他们又给鲍勃买了一把枪代替他弹
And the Old Flute was doomed and its fate was pathetic
《老笛》在劫难逃它的命运是悲惨的
'Twas fastened and burnt at the stake as heretic
作为异教徒被绑在火刑柱上焚烧
As the flames rose around it you could hear a strange noise
当火焰在它周围升起你可以听到一种奇怪的声音
'Twas the Old Flute still a-whistlin' The Protestant Boys
就像《老长笛》里唱着《新教徒男孩》
Toora lu toora lay
亲爱的躺下
Oh it's six miles from Bangor to Donnahadee
从班戈到敦纳哈迪只有六英里
