I Followed Her into the West

I followed her into the west,
我跟著她到西方，
Where I had never been before;
以前我從未到此，
And never did she see me as,
她也從未見過我，
I stood there helpless by the door.
我無奈站在門口。
Each day my resolution rose,
我的決議每天更加強烈，
And every day an oath I swore;
並且每天發誓，
Tonight Id stand and be a man,
今晚我要站著像個男人，
Tonight Id knock upon her door.
去敲她的門。
and shifted pressed cleaned dressed,
換上乾淨整潔的衣服，
I set out my quest once more;
我再一次開始追求，
But each night ended as the rest,
但每天結束要休息了，
I could not knock upon her door.
我還是不能敲她的門。
I paced my room and I cursed myself,
我在房間走來走去咒罵自己，
I swallowed that I would go no more;
我忍受著以至於舉步維艱，
as the sun was sinking low,
當夕陽西下，
I heard a knocking out my door.
我聽到外面的敲門聲。
And standing there with food for me,
她站在那給我食物，
standing there my hearts delight;
那時我心喜悅，
Who said, 'I thought you must be ill,
她說:“我以為你定是病了
I missed you at my door tonight.'
今晚我在我門口沒遇到你。”
'Now you must eat and you must sleep, “
現在你吃完了須去睡覺，
Your resolution to restore;
你回心轉意了，
And when these dishes you return,
當來還這些盤子的時候，
Be sure to knock upon my door.'
一定要來敲我的門。”
