Hear that lonesome whippoorwill, 听到寂寞的夜鹰，

He sounds too blue to fly. 他的声音太蓝飞。

The midnight train is whining low, 午夜的火车呜呜的低，

I'm so lonesome I could cry. 我很寂寞，我可以哭。

I've never seen a night so long 我从来没有见过一个晚上这么久

When time goes crawling by. 当时间的推移爬行通过。

The moon just went behind a cloud 月亮刚走到云的背后

To hide its face and cry. 要隐藏它的脸和哭。

   

Did you ever see a robin weep, 你有没有看到一只知更鸟泣，

When leaves began to die? 当树叶开始死吗？

That means he's lost the will to live, 这意味着他失去了活下去的意志，

I'm so lonesome I could cry. 我很寂寞，我可以哭。

   

The silence of a falling star 一颗流星的沉默

Lights up a purple sky. 亮起紫色的天空。

And as I wonder where you are 当我不知道你在哪里

I'm so lonesome I could cry. 我很寂寞，我可以哭。
