:柳園裡
Down by the Salley Gardens my love and I did meet
我曾和我的摯愛相遇在莎園中
She passed the Salley Gardens with little snow-white feet
她踏著雪白的纖纖玉足,輕輕走過莎園
She did me take love easy as the leaves grow on the tree
她要我簡單的追求真愛,就像大樹長出樹葉一般自然
But I being young and foolish with her did not agree
但我是那麼的年輕愚笨,從來沒有聽從過她的心聲
In a field by the river my love and I did stand
我曾和我的摯愛並肩佇立在河畔的曠野上
And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand
她把她嫩白的小手,搭在我那微微傾斜的肩膀上
She bid me take life easy as the grass grows on the weirs
她要我簡單的去生活,就像那生長在河畔的韌草一般
But I was young and foolish and now am full of tears
但我是那麼的年輕愚笨, 現在唯有淚水漣漣,感懷滿襟
:搖籃曲
Backward, turn backward, Time, in your flight, Makeme a child again just for tonight!
時間的流逝,後退,向後退,讓我做回小孩,就只在今夜!
Mother, come back from the echoless shore, Take meagain to your heart as of yore;
母親,從沒有迴音的海岸回來,一如往昔把我擁抱在懷裡;
Kiss from my forehead the furrows of care, Smooth the few silver threads out of my hair;
親我額頭,充滿關懷的皺紋,順理我頭髮上幾根銀絲;
Over my slumbers your loving watch keep; — Rock me to sleep, mother, – rock me to sleep!
在我睡眠中,一直憐愛地望著我 ;-搖我睡覺,母親 – 搖我入睡!
Backward, flow backward, O tide of the years!
噢,歲月的潮汐,後退,向後退!
I am so weary of toil and of tears, — Toil without recompense, tears all in vain,
我己厭倦於辛勞與眼淚 –辛勞而沒有補償,眼淚都徒勞無功
Take them, and give me my childhood again!
都拿去吧,只要給回我童年!
I have grown weary of dust and decay, — Weary of flinging my soul-wealth away; Weary ofsowing for others to reap;
我已經厭倦了塵埃與腐敗,厭倦於丟失我心靈財富,厭倦於為他人作嫁衣裳
Rock me to sleep, mother – rock me to sleep!
搖我入睡,母親 – 搖我入睡!
Tired of the hollow, the base, the untrue, Mother, O mother, my heart calls for you!
厭倦於空洞,卑鄙,不真實,母親,噢,母親,我的心在呼喚您!
Many a summer the grass has grown green, Blossomed and faded, our faces between:
多少個夏天,草長綠了,花開了,凋謝了,在我們的面與面之間:
Yet, with strong yearning and passionate pain, Long I tonight for your presence again.
然而,強烈的願望,激情的痛苦,讓我今夜渴望再見到您的出現。
Come from the silence so long and so deep;
來自沉默,那麼的久遠,那麼的深沉,
Rock me to sleep, mother – rock me to sleep!
搖我入睡,母親 – 搖我入睡!
Come, let your brown hair, just lighted with gold, Fall on your shoulders again as of old;
來吧,讓您的棕發,閃閃發光,一如往昔落在您的肩膀;
Let it drop over my forehead tonight, Shading my faint eyes away from the light;
讓它落在我額頭,今夜,護我微弱的眼晴,不讓光線照到;
For with its sunny-edged shadows once more Haply will throng the sweet visions of yore;
因為,再一次,這個邊緣充滿陽光的身影,無意中又撩起昔日甜蜜的願景;
Lovingly, softly, its bright billows sweep;
深情地,輕柔地,您明亮的髮絲,波光粼粼 ;
Rock me to sleep, mother, – rock me to sleep!
搖我入睡,母親 – 搖我入睡!
Mother, dear mother, the years have been long Since I last listened your lullaby song:
母親,親愛的母親,已經好多年了,自從我最後一次聽您的催眠曲;
Sing, then, and unto my soul it shall seem Womanhood's years have been only a dream.
那麼,唱吧,唱到我的心靈深處,讓我成長為婦人的歲月,只不過是一場夢
Clasped to your heart in a loving embrace, With your light lashes just sweeping my face, Neverhereafter to wake or to weep;
將我緊靠您的心,作個愛的擁抱,您的眼睫毛輕輕地,剛掃過我的面龐,從今而後,不再醒來或哭泣 ;
Rock me to sleep, mother, – rock me to sleep!
搖我入睡,母親 – 搖我入睡!
