It being in the springtime and the small birds they were singing 那是在春天的时节,小鸟儿们在歌唱 Down by yon shady harbour I carelessly did stray 沿著远处婆娑的海港,我不经意间竟迷失了方向 The thrushes they were warbling, the violets they were charming 画眉鸟柔和的唱著歌,还有那娇媚的紫罗兰竞相开放 To view fond lovers talking, a while I did delay 看著多情的恋人们低语,我停下了脚步 She said, my dear don't leave me for another season 她说,亲爱的请不要在任何季节离我而去 Though fortune does be pleasing I'll go along with you 虽然命运将我们捉弄,我依然还要与你在一起 I'll forsake friends and relations and bid this only nation 我会放弃亲友放弃爱尔兰民族的祝愿 And to the bonny Bann banks forever I'll bid adieu 我对神发誓,我永远都不会说再见 He said, my dear don't grieve or yet annoy my patience 他说,亲爱的请不要悲伤,那会困扰我的耐心 You know I love you dearly the more I'm going away 你要知道即使离开,我也会更加爱你 I'm going to a foreign nation to purchase a plantation 我要去一个遥远的国度,去寻觅一片土地 To comfort us hereafter all in America 来抚平灾难给我们带来的所有创伤 Then after a short while a fortune does be pleasing 不久以后当一切都已经平息 It'll cause them for to smile at our late going away 我将让所有人都因我们这次离别而幸福 We'll be happy as Queen Victoria, all in her greatest glory 我们将像维多利亚女皇一样快乐,有著她最伟大的荣耀 We'll be drinking wine and porter, all in America 我们要在这废墟上品尝美酒佳肴 If you were in your bed lying and thinking on dying 如果你躺在床上正思考著死亡 The sight of the lovely Bann banks your sorrow you'd give over 爱之神的目光,将你的忧伤带到我身旁 Or if you were down one hour, down in yon shady bower 或许瞬间就会降临,降临在那幽暗的凉亭 Pleasure would surround you, you'd think on death no more 快乐将围绕著你,你将不会再想到死亡 Then fare you well, sweet Craigie Hill, where often times I've roved 将要和你分别,我所眷恋的克雷吉山,当我在他乡流浪 I never thought my childhood days I'd part you any more 不再怀念与你分别的童年岁月 Now we're sailing on the ocean for honour and promotion 如今我们为了自由和发展而远航 And the bonny boats are sailing, way down by Doorin shore 漂亮的船起帆远航,通向家乡的彼岸

Cara Dillon一首美丽的《Craigie Hill》(克雷吉山),据说感动了整个爱尔兰。 虽然音乐中关于爱的故事很美丽,但关于Craigie Hill,美丽的克雷吉山的说明却并不多。根据google到的资料,Craigie Hill在苏格兰的Perth,而Craigie,在苏格兰语里是多石的,崎岖的意思。 演唱者Cara Dillon(卡拉·狄龙/卡兰·迪伦),爱尔兰民谣歌手,1975年7月21日出生于北爱尔兰Londonderry(伦敦德里)(北爱尔兰西北部一自治社区,位于贝尔法斯特市西北)的Dungiven。 她来自一个爱尔兰传统音乐世家。 她的声音清透美丽而极具风格,借鉴引入了多个民族音乐特有的元素,,并融入自己天然的个性和感染力。
