A plague in the workhouse, a plague on the poor 在济贫院瘟疫，对穷人瘟疫

Now I'll beat on my drum 'til I'm dead 现在，我会打败我的鼓，直到我死了

Yesterday, a fever, tomorrow, St. Peter 昨天，发烧，明天，圣彼得

I'll beat on my drum until then. 我会打我的鼓在那之前。

   

But what melody will lead my lover from his bed? 但旋律将带领我的爱人从床上？

What melody will see him in my arms again? 什么旋律将再次看到他在我的怀里？

   

Set fire to foundation and burn out the station 放火基础和烧坏站

You'll never get nothing of mine 你永远也不会得到什么矿

The pane of my window will flicker and billow 我的窗口窗格中会闪烁，翻腾

I won't leave a stitching behind 我不会留下一个缝合

   

But what melody will lead my lover from his bed? 但旋律将带领我的爱人从床上？

What melody will see him in my arms again? 什么旋律将再次看到他在我的怀里？

   

I'll sing of the walls of the well and the house at the top of the hill 我在山顶上唱很好，房子的墙壁

I'll sing of the bottles of wine that we left on our old windowsill 我会唱酒的瓶子，我们留在我们的老窗台

I'll sing of the years you will spend getting sadder and older 我会唱了多年，你将花费获得更难过及以上

Oh love, and the cold, the oncoming cold 爱哦，冷，迎面而来的寒冷
