Down by the Salley Gardens, my love and I did meet.
我曾和我的挚爱相遇在莎园中。
She passed the Salley Gardens, with little snow-white feet.
她踏著雪白的纤纤玉足，轻轻走过莎园。
She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree.
她要我简单的追求真爱，就像大树长出树叶一般自然。
But I being young and foolish, with her would not agree.
但我是那么的年轻愚笨，从来没有听从过她的心声。
In a field by the river, my love and I did stand.
我曾和我的挚爱并肩伫立在河畔的旷野上。
And on my leaning shoulder, she laid her snow-white hand.
她把她嫩白的小手，搭在我那微微倾斜的肩膀上。
She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs.
她要我简单的去生活，就像那生长在河畔的韧草一般。
But I was young and foolish, and now I'm full of tears.
但我是那么的年轻愚笨，现在唯有泪水涟涟，感怀满襟。
