- Karan Casey I Once Loved a Lass 歌词
- Karan Casey
- I once loved a lass and I loved her so well,
我曾爱她至深，永不能忘
I hated all others who spoke of her ill,
全心全意，满怀妒忌
But now she's rewarded me well for my love,
而我爱恋的结果如此不堪
For she's gone to be wed to another.
她马上就要成为别人的新娘
I watched as my love did to the church go,
我凝望我爱走过教堂
With bride and bride-maidens she made a fine show,
身着礼服，伴娘环绕，光彩照人
And I followed her on with a heart full of woe,
而我满心悲哀默默相随
To see my love be wed to another
看着我爱成为别人的新娘
To see my love be wed to another
看着我爱成为别人的新娘
I watched as my love did sit down to dine,
我凝望我爱就座用餐
I sat down beside her and poured out the wine,
我坐在近旁斟满酒杯
And I drank to the wee lass that should have been mine,
我为那本可以拥有的爱醉到凌晨
For now she is wed to another.
因为她马上要做别人的新娘
Oh stop says the groomsman if you take my word
如果你愿听我言语，请缄默婚姻的誓言
Would you venture your life on the point of a sword
你是否愿在刀尖上舞蹈，将生活交付给不安
For courting too slowly you have lost this fair maiden
我追逐的步伐迟缓，我终于失去了她
Begone you will never enjoy her
离别，表示再不能同欢共苦
Begone you will never enjoy her
离开，表示你永远失去了她
The lads of yon forest, they ask it of me,
那边森林里的小伙子问我一个问题：
How many strawberries grow round the salt sea,
咸涩的海边有多少草莓在生长？
But I answer them back with a tear in my eye,
而我只有以泪眼相答：
How many ships sail in the forest?
森林那边又有多少小船扬帆？
Go dig me a grave all large wide and deep,
给我一方宽敞的坟址
And cover it over with wild flowers sweet,
有漫漫的野花甜美地摇
And lay me down gently for to take a long sleep,
葬我于山野间长眠
For that's the best way to forget her.
唯此两忘，别无他法
So we dug him a grave all large wide and deep,
修短各有期，生死同别离
And covered it over with wild flowers sweet,
扬此一抔土
And we laid him down gently for to take his long sleep,
泉址会相随
And maybe by now he's forgotten.
也许他可以忘记了
And maybe by now he's forgotten.
也许他终于忘记了
