Down by the salley gardens
my love and I did meet;
在莎莉花园深处，
吾爱与我曾经相遇。

She passed the salley gardens
with little snow-white feet.
她穿越莎莉花园，
以雪白的小脚。

She bid me take love easy,
as the leaves grow on the tree;
她嘱咐我要爱得轻松，
当新叶在枝桠萌芽。

But I, being young and foolish,
with her would not agree.
但我当年年幼无知，
不予轻率苟同。

In a field by the river
my love and I did stand,
在河边的田野，
吾爱与我曾经驻足。

And on my leaning shoulder
she laid her snow-white hand.
她依靠在我的肩膀，
以雪白的小手。

She bid me take life easy,
as the grass grows on the weirs;
她嘱咐我要活得轻松，
当青草在堤岸滋长。

But I was young and foolish,
and now am full of tears.
但我当年年幼无知，
而今热泪盈眶。
