Afton Water
Afton Water
by Robert Burns
Flow gently, sweet Afton, among thy green braes!
Flow gently, I'll sing thee a song in thy praise!
My Mary's asleep by thy murmuring stream,
Flow gently, sweet Afton, disturb not her dream.
Thou stock-dove, whose echo resounds thro' the glen,
Ye wild whistling blackbirds in yon thorny den,
Thou green-crested lapwing, thy screaming forbear,
I charge you disturb not my slumbering fair.
How lofty, sweet Afton, thy neighbouring hills,
Far mark'd with the courses of clear winding rills;
There daily I wander as noon rises high,
My flocks and my Mary's sweet cot in my eye.
How pleasant thy banks and green valleys below,
Where wild in the woodlands the primroses blow;
There oft, as mild Ev'ning sweeps over the lea,
The sweet-scented birk shades my Mary and me.
Thy crystal stream, Afton, how lovely it glides,
And winds by the cot where my Mary resides,
How wanton thy waters her snowy feet lave,
As gathering sweet flowrets she stems thy clear wave.
Flow gently, sweet Afton, among thy green braes,
Flow gently, sweet river, the theme of my lays;
My Mary's asleep by thy murmuring stream,
Flow gently, sweet Afton, disturb not her dream.
亚顿河水
罗伯特·彭斯
轻轻地流，甜美的亚顿河，你流过碧坡青山，
轻轻地流，让我一展歌喉把你盛赞；
我的玛丽傍着你的淙淙流水安然入睡
轻轻地流，甜美的亚顿河，别把她的美梦搅碎。
你呀，欧鸽，歌声在幽谷里回荡，
你呀，乌鸫，哨声在荆棘丛生的溪谷中鸣响，
你呀，绿冠的田凫，你那喜爱啼叫的尊长，
我请求你们不要打扰我熟睡的姑娘。
多么听挺拔呦，甜美的亚顿河，你周围的山岗，
你的河道那么清晰、曲折、悠长，
每当正午太阳高照，我便在此漫步，
目光不离我的羊群和玛丽的甜蜜小屋。
你的河岸和低矮的翠谷令人神清气爽，
树林里樱草花遍地怒放，
每当温煦的黄昏在草地降临，芬芳的桦树便赐予玛丽和我一片绿阴。
晶莹的流水呦，亚顿河，你多么赏心悦目，
你蜿蜒地流过玛丽居住的小屋，
你顽皮地把她那雪白的双脚洗濯，
每当她迎着清波去采集芬芳的花朵。
轻轻地流，甜美的亚顿河，你流过碧坡青山，
轻轻地流，让我一展歌喉把你盛赞；
我的玛丽傍着你的淙淙流水安然入睡
轻轻地流，甜美的亚顿河，别把她的美梦搅碎。
