Carrickfergus

I wish I was in Carrickfergus
但願我在，那卡里佛格斯，
Only for nights in Ballygrand
只有在夜晚，去巴利農莊。
I would swim over the deepest ocean
我要去橫渡，深深的大海洋，
The deepest ocean for my love to find
渡過那大海，尋找我情郎。
But the sea is wide and I cannot swim over
大海寬廣，我不能夠去橫渡，
Neither have I the wings to fly
也沒有翅膀去飛翔。
If I could find me a handsome boatsman
但願我有，仁慈的船夫，
To ferry me over to my love and die
帶我找到他，死在他身旁。
La,la,la,la,la,la,la,la...
啦,啦,啦,啦,啦,啦,啦,啦......
My childhood days bring back sad reflections
我少年時代，那是痛苦時光，
Of happy times spent so long ago
過去的日子，早已沒陽光。
My childhood friends and my own relations
回憶我童年，朋友和那親人，
Have all passed on now like melting snow
像冰雪融化，消散在遠方。
But I'll spend my days in endless roaming
光陰如箭，我還在世上徘徊，
Soft is the grass,my bed is free
那大草地，就是我的床！
Ah,to be back now in Carrickfergus
啊，我回到了，那卡里佛格斯，
On that long road down to the sea
去大海的路，還很長很長。
I'll spend my days in endless roaming
光陰如箭，我還在世上徘徊，
Soft is the grass,my bed is free
那大草地，就是我的床！
But I am sick now,and my days are numbered
如今我已老，來日已經無多，
Come all you young men and lay me down
讓我躺下，來吧，少兒郎。
