In London City where I did dwell
在我曾经住过的伦敦城
A butcher boy I loved right well
一个我深爱的屠夫男孩
He courted me
他追求我
My life away
我的人生就此结束
But now with me he will not stay
但现在他不会和我在一起
I wish I wish I wish in vain
我的愿望都是徒劳
I wish I was a maid again
我希望我能再做回女佣
A maid again I ne'er will be
我再也不会做女佣
'Til cherries grow on an apple tree
直到樱桃长在苹果树上
I wish my baby it was born
我希望我的孩子出生了
And smiling on it's daddy's knee
对着爸爸的膝盖微笑
And me poor girl to be dead and gone
我可怜的女孩已经离开人世
With the long green grass growing over me
青草在我的头顶蔓延
She went upstairs to go to bed
她上楼去睡觉了
And calling up her mother said
给她妈妈打电话说
Give me a chair 'til I sit down
在我坐下之前给我一把椅子
And a pen and ink 'til I write down
用笔和墨水直到我写下
And at every line cried willie dear
听到每一句话威利都大声叫道亲爱的
At every word she dropped a tear
她每说一句话就掉下一滴泪
Oh what a foolish girl was I
我真是个愚蠢的女孩
To be led astray by a butcher boy
被一个屠夫小子引入歧途
He went upstairs and the door he broke
他上了楼破门而入
He found her hanging from a rope
他发现她被绳子吊着
He took his knife and he cut her down
他拿起刀将她砍倒
And in her pocket these words he found
在她的口袋里他发现了这些话
Oh make my grave large wide and deep
让我的坟墓变得又大又深
Put a marble stone at my head and feet
在我的头和脚上放一块大理石
And in the middle a turtle dove
中间是一只斑鸠
That the world may know that I died for love
让全世界知道我为爱而死
