In Scarlet Town where I was born
在我出生的斯卡莱特小镇
There was a fair maid dwelling
住着一位美丽的姑娘
Made every youth cry well-a-day
让所有青年叹息心伤
And her name was Barbry Ellen
她的芳名是巴布里·埃伦
All in the merry month of May
在欢乐的五月时光
When the green buds they were swelling
当嫩绿的新芽初绽放
Young William Green on his death bed lay
年轻的威廉·格林卧病在床
For the love of Barbry Ellen
为爱慕巴布里而命丧
He sent his servant to the town
他派遣仆从前往小镇
To her own father's dwelling
来到她父亲的居所
Saying master's sick and he bids you to come
传话道主人病重 望您前来
If your name be Barbry Ellen
若您名为芭芭拉·艾伦
Then slowly slowly got she up
她缓缓起身
So slowly she came nigh him
步履沉重地走近他
And all she said when she got there
当她抵达时 只轻声说道
Young man I believe you're dying
年轻人啊 我看你命不久矣
O yes I'm sick and I'm very sick
是啊 我已病入膏肓
And I never will be any better
此生再难痊愈
Until I gain the love of one
除非能得到她的芳心
The love of Barbry Ellen

O yes you're sick and you're very sick
是啊 你已病入膏肓
And you never will be any better
此生再难痊愈
For you never will gain the love of one
因为你永远得不到她的心
The love of Barbry Ellen
巴布里·埃伦的爱意
O don't you remember in yonders town
你可还记得在那远方小镇
In yonders town a-drinking
在那欢宴畅饮的小镇
You gave the health to the ladies all around
你向满座淑女举杯致意
And slighted Barbry Ellen
却冷落了巴布里·埃伦
O yes I remember in yonders town
是啊 我记得在那远方小镇
In yonders town a-drinking
在那欢宴畅饮的小镇
I give the health to the ladies all around
我向满座佳丽举杯祝酒
But my heart to Barbry Ellen
但我的心属于芭芭拉·艾伦
He's turned his pale face to the wall
他将苍白的脸庞转向墙壁
And death was with him dwelling
死神已与他同住
Farewell farewell my good neighbours all
永别了 永别了 我亲爱的邻居们
Be kind to Barbry Ellen
请善待芭芭拉·艾伦
She was a-walking through the fields
当她漫步穿过田野
She heard the death bell knelling
听见丧钟声声哀鸣
And every stroke that death bell gave
每一声钟响都在宣告
Cried woe to Barbry Ellen
悲叹着芭芭拉·艾伦的名字
She was a-walking through the woods
她独自穿行在林间小径
She saw his pale corpse a-coming
忽见他苍白的遗容渐近
Set down set down that corpse of clay
轻放下那具冰凉的躯体
That I might look upon him
容我最后凝望他的容颜
The more she looked the more she grieved
愈是端详愈是肝肠寸断
Until she burst out crying
终化作泪雨滂沱难自抑
O take him away o take him away
请将他带走吧 请将他带走吧
For I myself am dying
因我也即将离世
O mother mother go make my bed
哦母亲 母亲 为我铺床
Go make it both long and narrow
铺得又长又窄
Sweet William has died for love of me
亲爱的威廉为我殉情
And I shall die of sorrow
而我将因悲伤而死
O father father go dig my grave
哦父亲 父亲 为我掘墓
Go dig it both long and narrow
掘得又长又窄
Sweet William has died for me today
亲爱的威廉今日为我殉情而逝
And I'll die for him tomorrow
明日我将随他共赴黄泉
She was buried in the old churchyard
她被安葬在古老教堂墓地
Sweet William was buried a-nigh her
威廉长眠在她身旁相依
And out of his grave grew a red red rose
他坟前绽放红艳玫瑰
Out of Barbry's grew a green briar
她墓上缠绕翠绿荆棘
And they grew and grew up the old church
藤蔓缠绕攀上教堂尖顶
Tower till they couldn't grow any higher
直至苍穹再难攀援
And there they tied in a true lover's knot
真爱之结将他们紧紧相系
Red rose around green briar
红玫瑰缠绕着绿荆棘
And they grew and grew up the old church
藤蔓缠绕攀上教堂尖顶
Tower till they couldn't grow any higher
直至苍穹再难攀援
And there they tied in a true lover's knot
真爱之结将他们紧紧相系
Red rose around green briar
红玫瑰缠绕着绿荆棘
