原歌词

[00:00.00]	作曲 : Ludwig van Beethoven
[00:10.60]	They bid me slight my Dermot dear,
[00:13.50]	For he's of low degree,
[00:16.64]	While I my lady's maid am here,
[00:19.82]	And of the quality.
[00:22.98]	But if my mother would not grieve,
[00:25.80]	And if the truth were known,
[00:28.87]	Well-pleas'd would I this castle leave,
[00:32.82]	And live for him alone.
[00:35.87]
[00:46.20]	My lady, who is very kind,
[00:49.33]	To me will sometimes call,
[00:52.32]	And talk of love with scoffing mind,
[00:55.70]	And say 'tis folly all.
[00:58.59]	Ah! Words like these are finely said,
[01:02.14]	And may my lady please,
[01:05.12]	For she her own true love has wed,
[01:08.44]	And has her heart at ease.
[01:11.50]
[01:22.64]	Oh, never slight thy Dermot dear,
[01:25.55]	Tho' he's of low degree,
[01:28.88]	For thou thy lady's maid art here,
[01:32.06]	And of the quality.
[01:35.42]	For tho' thy mother haply grieve
[01:38.68]	When first the truth were known,
[01:41.86]	She'll bid thee not thy Dermot leave,
[01:45.24]	But live fro him alone.
[01:48.45]
[01:59.50]	I sit, my love, to think on thee,
[02:02.69]	Look o'er the Shannon wide,
[02:06.18]	And fancy I thy cabin see
[02:09.52]	The lofty elms beside.
[02:12.90]	The Shannon waves run very high,
[02:16.11]	The little boat I fear;
[02:19.50]	No more at night the passage try,
[02:22.95]	For winter now is here.
[02:25.98]
[02:36.73]	There's none like thee, - the king of all,
[02:40.24]	At funeral, and at fair;
[02:43.49]	My lord's fine man, hat's in the hall,
[02:46.86]	Can ne'er with thee compare.
[02:50.12]	Thy heart is true, thy heart is warm;
[02:53.60]	And so is mine to thee;
[02:57.16]	And would my Lord but give the farm,
[03:00.48]	How happy should we be!
[03:03.51]

歌词翻译

[00:10.60]	他们要我轻慢亲爱的德莫特，
[00:13.50]	因他出身卑微，
[00:16.64]	而我身为贵妇侍女，
[00:19.82]	属于上流阶级。
[00:22.98]	但若母亲不会伤心，
[00:25.80]	若真相能被知晓，
[00:28.87]	我愿舍弃这座城堡，
[00:32.82]	只为他而活到老。
[00:35.87]
[00:46.20]	我那位仁慈的女主人，
[00:49.33]	时常唤我谈心，
[00:52.32]	带着讥讽谈论爱情，
[00:55.70]	说这全是愚行。
[00:58.59]	啊！这些话说得漂亮，
[01:02.14]	讨得夫人欢畅，
[01:05.12]	她已嫁给真心情郎，
[01:08.44]	心安无需彷徨。
[01:11.50]
[01:22.64]	噢永远别轻慢德莫特，
[01:25.55]	尽管出身微末，
[01:28.88]	你虽身为贵妇侍者，
[01:32.06]	属于上流阶级。
[01:35.42]	纵使母亲最初伤悲，
[01:38.68]	当真相被知晓，
[01:41.86]	她终会愿你相随，
[01:45.24]	与他共度暮朝。
[01:48.45]
[01:59.50]	我坐着思念心上人，
[02:02.69]	眺望香农河宽，
[02:06.18]	仿佛看见你的小屋，
[02:09.52]	傍着高大榆树。
[02:12.90]	香农河波涛汹涌，
[02:16.11]	小舟令我忧忡；
[02:19.50]	莫在夜间尝试横渡，
[02:22.95]	寒冬现已来临。
[02:25.98]
[02:36.73]	无人及你——葬礼与集市之王，
[02:40.24]	领主大厅里盛装的侍从，
[02:43.49]	也难与你相提并论。
[02:46.86]	你心真诚又炽热，
[02:50.12]	我的心也如此待你；
[02:53.60]	若领主赐予农场，
[02:57.16]	我们将多么欢欣！
[03:00.48]	多么幸福美满！
[03:03.51]
