I'm going home to the town where I was born 我要回家，我出生的小镇

where little children laughed as they sang 那里的孩子们笑了，因为他们唱

a happy song 快乐的歌

in the little town of Ceylon, 在锡兰的小镇，

Ceylon city, Ceylon city 锡兰城市，锡兰城

   

I've got a boat , I hope it's still afloat 我有一条船，我希望它仍然浮着

with rusty sails, and an old wooden oar 生锈的帆和一个古老的木制船桨

It goes along, in the little town of Ceylon 它随之而来，在锡兰的小镇

   

Ceylon City..... 锡兰城.....

   

My daddy will be waiting there 我的爸爸会等候在那里

My sister will be combing down her silver hair 我姐姐将梳理了她的银色的头发

My mamma will be waiting there 我的妈妈会等在那里

serving lunch to my brother, but he's nowhere 供应午餐给我的兄弟，但他无处

   

Ceylon City.... 锡兰城....
