歌词
arr. and adapted by Loreena McKennitt
这里是对于你祝愿，美丽的凯尔斯河村
Here's a health to you bonny Kellswater
那里你能有人生的所有快乐
Where you get all the pleasures of life
那里你能自由垂钓和捕鸟
Where you get all the fishing and fowling
还有一位美丽的姑娘能成为你的妻子
And a bonny wee lass for your wife.
哦，这里的水流浑浊
我担心它永远也无法清澈
Oh it's down where yon waters run muddy
当我开始苦思的时候
I'm afraid they will never run clear
已经心不在焉，脑海中全是他
And it's when I begin for to study
这一位或者另一位可能向他示爱
My mind is on him that's not here.
但是要是任何人得到他，而不是我
那么早晚我会诅咒他们
And it's this one and that one may court him
因为夺走了我亲爱的威利
But if any one gets him but me
哦，一位父亲对他的女儿作出要求
It's early and late I will curse them
我给你两个选择
The parting lovely Willie from me.
你是愿意看着威利的船一直远航
还是让他像狗一样迷恋于你那棵树
Oh a father he calls on his daughter
哦，父亲啊，亲爱的父亲，我喜欢他
Two choices I'll give unto thee
我不能再对您遮掩
Would you rather see Willie's ship a'sailing
我愿赴汤蹈火
See him hung like a dog on yonder tree.
只要能和心爱的威利一起
哦，伤心事难觅
Oh father, dear father, I love him
她满怀着欢喜
I can no longer hide it from thee
祝愿古爱尔兰的锁链能将他们连在一起
Through an acre of fire I would travel
并让他们夜晚能共安眠
Along with the lovely Willie to be.
哦，远方的海中有一艘船
它不知道向哪里转舵
Oh hard was the heartbreak I'm finding
从东方到西方总是在刮风
She took from her full heart's delight
它提醒了我那美丽的爱人
May the chains of old Ireland come find them
哦，我的威利就要从那里来了
And softly their pillows at night.
他说过春天就会到这里
就在那边的绿树阴下，我和他重逢
Oh yonder there's a ship on the ocean
我们要在玫瑰原野歌唱
And she does not know which way to steer
他给我带上金戒指
From the east and the west she's a'blowing
说这能将爱铭刻于你的心
She reminds me of the charms of my dear.
如果我曾从古爱尔兰远航而来
你会记得我没有抛下你
Oh it's yonder my Willie will be coming
这里是对于你祝愿，美丽的凯尔斯河村
He said he'd be here in the spring
那里你能有人生的所有快乐
And it's down by yon green shades I'll meet him
那里你能自由垂钓和捕鸟
And among wild roses we'll sing.
还有一位美丽的姑娘能成为你的妻子
完
For a gold ring he placed on my finger
Saying love hear this in your mind
If ever I sail from old Ireland
You'll mind I'll not leave you behind.
Here's a health to you bonny Kellswater
Where you get all the pleasures of life
Where you get all the fishing and fowling
And a bonny wee lass for your wife.
END
