[00:00.78]Farewell(再见) to the groves(小树林) of shillelagh(爱尔兰橡树棍) and shamrock(白花酢浆草-爱尔兰国花)
[00:09.73]Farewell to the wee(小的) girls of old Ireland all round
[00:19.85]May their hearts be as merry as ever I would wish them
[00:30.45]When far far away across the ocean I'm bound
[00:41.89]
[00:43.27]Oh my father is old and my mother is quite feeble(虚弱的)
[00:53.02]To leave their own country it grieves(使伤心) their hearts sore(疼痛的)
[01:03.56]Oh the tears in great drops down their cheeks they are rolling
[01:14.72]To think they must die upon some foreign shore
[01:25.88]
[01:30.98]But what matters to me where my bones may be buried
[01:40.31]If in peace and contentment(满足) I can spend my life
[01:50.13]Oh the green fields of Canada they daily are blooming
[02:01.60]It's there I'll put an end to my miseries(苦难) and strife(斗争).
[02:11.90]
[02:12.35]so pack up your seastores(?) and tarry(踌躇) no longer
[02:22.77]Ten dollars a week isn't very bad pay;
[02:32.30]With no taxes or tithes to devour(吞噬) up your wages
[02:43.93]When you're on the green fields of Amerikay(=old Irish name for North America)
[02:52.89]
[03:29.83]The sheep run unshorn and the land's gone to rushes(?)
[03:38.79]The handyman's(杂务工) gone and the winders of creels(纺织工)
[03:49.02]Away across the ocean good journeyman tailors
[03:57.91]And fiddlers that play out the old mountain tunes.
[04:07.90]
[04:08.19]Farewell to the dances in homes now deserted,
[04:18.86]When tips struck the lightening in splanks(=sparks) from the floor,
[04:29.25]The paving(铺筑过的路面) and rigging(绳索) of hobnails(乡下佬) on flagstones(石板)
[04:40.69]The tears of the old folk and shouts of encore(再来一个).
[04:50.82]
[04:56.08]For the landlords(地主) and bailiffs(地主管家) in vile(卑鄙的) combination(共谋),
[05:04.68]Have forced us from hearthstone(炉底石) and homestead(家园) away
[05:13.89]May the crowbar(撬棍) brigade(大队) all be doomed(毁灭) to damnation(指责；咒骂)
[05:23.69]When we're on the green fields of Americay.
[05:32.24]
[05:34.00]And it's now to conclude and to finish my story
[05:43.54]If ever friendless Irishmen chances my way
[05:53.06]With the best in the house I will treat him, and welcome
[06:05.00]At home in the green fields of Amerikay.
[06:15.08]The Green Fields of Canada
