Craigie Hill - Cara Dillon

It being in the springtime and the small birds they were singing

那是在春天的时节 小鸟儿们在歌唱

Down by yon shady harbour I carelessly did stray

沿着远处婆娑的海港 我不经意间竟迷失了方向

The thrushes they were warbling

画眉鸟柔和的唱着歌

The violets they were charming

还有那娇媚的紫罗兰竞相开放

To view fond lovers talking a while I did delay

看着多情的恋人们低语 我停下了脚步

She said my dear don't leave me for another season

她说，亲爱的 请不要在任何季节离我

Though fortune does be pleasing I'll go along with you

虽然命运将我们捉弄 我还要与你在一起

I'll forsake friends and relations and bid this Irish nation

我会放弃亲友 放弃爱尔兰民族的 祝愿

And to the bonny Bann banks forever I'll bid adieu

对神 发誓，我永远都不会说再见

He said my dear don't grieve or yet annoy my patience

他说，亲爱的 请不要悲伤否则会困扰我的耐心

You know I love you dearly the more I'm going away

你要知 道即使离开，我只会更强烈地爱你

I'm going to a foreign nation to purchase a plantation

To comfort us hereafter all in America

我要去一个遥远的国度去寻觅一片土地

来抚平灾难给我们带 来的所有创伤

Then after a short while a fortune does be pleasing

不久以后 当一切都已经平息

I'll cause them for two smile at our late going away

我将让所有人都因我们这次离别而幸福

We'll be happy as Queen Victoria all in her greatest glory

我们将像维多利亚女皇一样 快乐 有着她最伟大的荣耀

We'll be drinking wine and porter all in America

我们要在美利坚品尝美酒佳肴

If you were in your bed lying and thinking on dying

如果 你躺在床上正思考着死亡

The sight of the lovely Bann banks your sorrow you'd give o'er

爱之神的目光，将你的忧伤带到我身旁

Or if you're down one hour down in yon shady bower

或许瞬间就会降临 降临在那幽暗的凉亭

Pleasure would surround you you'd think on death no more

快乐将围绕着你 你将不会再想到死亡

Then fare you well sweet Cragie Hills where often times I've roved

所以永别了吧 我可爱的克雷吉山峦 我曾漫游数次的地方

I never thought my childhood days I'd part you any more

我以为从我孩童时期起就不会再和你分开

Now we're sailing on the ocean for honour and promotion

而如今我们却航行在荣誉和重生的海洋里

And the bonny boats are sailing way down by Doorin shore

沿着多里安海岸，美丽的船儿在航行
