As I went out one morning 当我出去一天早晨

To breathe the air around Tom Paine's 呼吸周围的汤姆·潘恩的空气

I spied the fairest damsel í窥探最公平的姑娘

That ever did walk in chains 这永远都走在链

I offer'd her my hand í offerd她的我的手

She took me by the arm 她拉着我的胳膊

I knew that very instant 我知道这非常时刻

She meant to do me harm. 她的意思做我的伤害。

   

"Depart from me this moment" “离开我此刻”

I told her with my voice 我告诉她，用我的声音

Said she, "But I don't wish to" 她说， “但我不希望”

Said I, "But you have no choice" 我说，“但你别无选择”

"I beg you, sir", she pleaded “求求你，先生” ，她恳求

From the corners of her mouth 从她的嘴角

"I will secretly accept you “我会偷偷接受你

And together we'll fly south". 和我们一起南飞“ 。

   

Just then Tom Paine, himself 就在这时，汤姆·潘恩，他自己

Came running from across the field 来自全国各地的外地跑来

Shouting at this lovely girl 默默的看着这个可爱的女孩

And commanding her to yield 指挥她产生

And as she was letting go her grip 正如她让她去握

Up Tom Paine did run 截至汤姆·潘恩并运行

"I'm sorry, sir", he said to me “对不起，先生，”他对我说：

"I'm sorry for what she'd done". “对不起为她做这些。”
