Old Black Kettle - Dolly Parton
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Well I remember when I was just little
犹记幼时岁月长
Mama used to cook on an old black kettle
母亲总用旧黑壶煮饭香
On an old wood stove she'd had since she was wed
那嫁妆木炉伴她半生忙
Well the oven door was sprung a little bit
炉门松脱吱呀响
So we propped it up with a forked stick
树杈支起暖心房
But that didn't matter cause mama kept us fed
粗茶淡饭里盛满慈母光
My mama and daddy must have loved each other
父母情深似海洋
Cause I had eleven sisters and brothers
膝下十一手足绕身旁
And the girls worked just as hard as the boys did
女孩们和男孩们一样辛勤劳作
There was corn to hoe then we'd go hoe it
玉米地需要锄草 我们就去锄
We might have been poor but we didn't know it
或许我们贫穷 却浑然不觉
We'd heard that word but we didn't know what it meant
听过这个词 却不解其意
Oh we used to have such a good life
那时我们拥有如此美好的生活
And the days that I knew then are the happiest I've known
那段时光是我最快乐的记忆
And oh didn't we have such a good time
我们曾度过多么美好的岁月
It's sad to think the old black kettle's gone
想到旧黑壶已不在 不禁感伤
Well there was nothing that pleased us any better
没有什么比这更让我们欢欣
Than when we got an occasional letter
偶尔收到远方亲人的来信
From kin folks living up north in some big town
那些住在北方大城市的至亲
We'd think of all the games we'd play
我们总想起一起玩耍的时光
And we just couldn't hardly wait
迫不及待地期盼着
When our city cousins said they're a coming down
城里表亲说要来访的消息
Now mama's done away with the old black kettle
如今妈妈已不用那口旧黑壶
She used to cook in when I was just little
那口伴我童年的炊具
And the door ain't sprung on her electric range
她电炉上的门再也不会吱呀作响
That little farm and home we had
我们曾拥有的小农场和家
It ain't there no more and that's too bad
如今已不复存在 多么遗憾
Folks are doing away with the simple things
人们正在抛弃那些简单的事物
And oh we used to have such a good life
啊 我们曾有过如此美好的生活
And the days that I knew then are the happiest I've known
那段时光是我最快乐的记忆
And oh didn't we have such a good time
我们曾度过多么美好的岁月
It's sad to think the old black kettle's gone
想到旧黑壶已不在 不禁感伤
Now I just mean to say the simple things are gone
如今我只想说 那些简单的事物已消逝
The old black kettle's gone
那口旧黑壶也不复存在
