歌手 Shirley Collins sweet England

Written by:Traditional

As I was a-walking one morning in spring
我走進春天的清晨
To see the green fields, hear the colley bird sing
一望無際的綠野,傾聽科利鳥歌唱
I met a young lady a-making her mourn
一位年輕的女士,獨自哀傷
Oh, I am a stranger and a long way from home
我是個外鄉人,遠離家鄉

I came from sweet England with mother and dad
我和爸媽來自芬芳的英格蘭
We thought in America all might be had
我們以為到了美國
Of gold and of silver and acres galore
一切都會是金銀財富
And never meet hunger and poverty more
再也不需要在貧窮中飢餓

But alas, for sweet England! my father is dead
可為了芬香的英格蘭!我父親死了
And mother can learn but little for bread
母親只能掙到一點麵包
And I weep as I gaze o'er the far distant main
回望無盡的海洋,我哭了
For a fine ship to take me to England again
等待一艘好船送我回英格蘭

I've an aunt in the country, she lives all alone
我在鄉下有個阿姨,她獨自居住
She'd welcome and love me as I were her own
她會歡迎我,像愛自己的孩子一樣愛我
I'd nurse her in sickness and tend her in pain
我會在她生病時照顧她,在她痛苦時陪伴她
And thank God I was back in sweet England again
感謝上帝,我又回到了芬芳的英格蘭
And this so to be back in sweet England again
芬香的英格蘭
