East Virginia - Joan Baez

East Virginia - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)

I was born in east Virginia
我出生在弗吉尼亚东部
North Carolina I did roam
我曾漫步于北卡罗来纳
There I met a pretty maiden
在那儿我遇见了一位美丽的少女
Her name and age I do not know
我不知道她的芳名和年龄
Her hair it was of a brightsome color
她的头发乌黑亮丽
And her lips of a ruby red
她的嘴唇是宝石红
On her breast she wore white lilies
她的胸口别着百合花
There I longed to lay my head

Well in my heart you are my darling
亲爱的，你在我的心上
And at my door you're welcome in
欢迎你进入我的心房
At my gate I'll meet you my darling
亲爱的，在我的心门口，我会遇见你
If your love I could only win
如果我是唯一赢得你芳心的人
I'd rather be in some dark holler
为此我宁愿待在黑暗之中
Where the sun refused to shine
那里得不到阳光的照耀
Than to see you another man's darling
也不愿看到亲爱的你属于别人
And to know that you'll never be mine

Well in the night I'm dreaming about you
夜里，我经常梦见你
In the day I find no rest

Just the thought of you my darling
亲爱的，我对你的想念
Sends aching pains all through my breast
始终在我心中隐隐作痛
Well when I'm dead and in my coffin
当我死去，躺在我的灵柩
With my feet turned toward the sun
我的双脚朝着太阳
Come and sit beside me darling
亲爱的，来坐到我身边
Come and think on the way you done
想想你曾经对我的所作所为
