- Written by：Traditional
As I was a-walking one morning in spring

To see the green fields, hear the colley bird sing
一望无际的绿野，倾听科利鸟歌唱
I met a young lady a-making her mourn

Oh, I am a stranger and a long way from home
我是个外乡人，远离家乡
I came from sweet England with mother and dad
我和爸妈来自芬芳的英格兰
We thought in America all might be had
我们以为到了美国
Of gold and of silver and acres galore
一切都会是金银财富
And never meet hunger and poverty more
再也不需要在贫穷中饥饿
But alas, for sweet England! my father is dead
可为了芬香的英格兰！我父亲死了
And mother can learn but little for bread
母亲只能挣到一点面包
And I weep as I gaze o'er the far distant main
回望无尽的海洋，我哭了
For a fine ship to take me to England again
等待一艘好船送我回英格兰
I've an aunt in the country, she lives all alone
我在乡下有个阿姨，她独自居住
She'd welcome and love me as I were her own

I'd nurse her in sickness and tend her in pain

And thank God I was back in sweet England again

And this so to be back in sweet England again
