Trees They Do Grow High
The trees they grow high, and the leaves they do grow green树已长高,叶子已变绿
Many is the time my true love I've seen多少次我看着这一切如同望着我的爱人
Many an hour I have watched him all alone许多时候我都在孤单地注视着他
He's young but he's daily growing他很年轻但他在一天天长大
Father, dear father, you've done me great wrong父亲,亲爱的父亲, 你犯了一个很大的错误
You have married me to a boy who is too young你把我嫁给了一个那么年轻的男孩
I am twice twelve and he is but fourteen我已经24了而他才14岁
He's young but he's daily growing他很年轻, 但我想他会日渐成长
Daughter, dear daughter, I've done you no wrong女儿, 我亲爱的女儿,我并没有做错
I have married you to a great lord's son我把你嫁给了一个显耀贵族的儿子
He will be a man for you when I am dead and gone有一天当我不在了他会很好地照顾你
He's young but he's daily growing他现在很年轻,但他会一天天成长
Father, dear father, if you see fit父亲,亲爱的父亲,如果你同意
We'll send him to college for another year yet在来年我们把他送到大学去
I'll tie a blue ribbon all around his head我会为他裹上蓝色的头巾
To let the maidens know that he is married让别人知道他已经结婚了
One day I was looking over my father's castle wall一天我从父亲的城墙上远望
I spied all the boys playing with a ball我看到男孩们正在打球
And my own true love was the flower of them all而我的爱人是当中的佼佼
He's young but he's daily growing他现在很年轻但他在一天天成长
(And so early in the morning at the dawning of the day时值清晨,在拂晓时分
They went into a hayfield to have some sport and play他们来到草地上玩耍嬉闹
And what they did there she never would declare他们在那儿所做的一切她永远也不会说出来
But she never more complained of his growing但她从此不再嘟哝他的成长)
At the age of fourteen he was a married man14岁时,他已为人夫
At the age of fifteen the father of my son15岁时,他已为人父
At the age of sixteen his grave it was green16岁时,他的坟墓郁郁苍苍
And death had put an end to his growing死亡为他的成长画上了句号
(I'll buy my love some flannel, I'll make my love a shroud我要给我的爱人买绒服, 给他做寿衣
With every stitch I put in it, the tears they will pour down每缝一针,眼泪就默默流淌
With every stitch I put in it, how the tears they will flow一针又一针, 我不知如何控制我的泪水
Cruel fate has put an end to his growing也许是命运的捉弄, 他就这样走完他的一生)
The trees they grow high, and the leaves they do grow green树已长高,叶子已变绿
