Down in the southwest Virginia town of Richlands 相传在弗吉尼亚州西南部小镇RICHLANDS的

I fell in love with an Appalachian girl 我爱上了一个女孩阿巴拉契亚

She lived in a long line of little row houses 她住在小房子排一长排

On the side of an old strip mining hill 在一个古老的露天采矿山边

She walked along on the jagged ridge 她在坑洼不平的山脊前走过

And looked as far as she could see 看着就她能看到

But the hills out there so up and down 但山在那里左右上下

You only see as far as the next big ridge 你只看到远处的下一个大岭

   

Everytime I see her face 每次我看到她的脸

On the street in the hollow of on the hill 就在山上的空街

Another time and another place 另一个时间，另一个地点

I feel her in my heart still 我觉得她在我的心脏还在

Everytime I see her face 每次我看到她的脸

On the street in the hollow in the bend 就在弯中空街道

I see her in my mind and then 我看到她在我的脑海，然后

I go down the road not taken...again 我去没有走过的路...再

   

Oh the coal dust settles on the window display 哦煤炭尘埃落定窗口显示屏上

They have to change it about every other day 他们必须改变它大约每隔一天

Some things never change way out here 有些东西永远不会改变的出路在这里

An outsider could always remain that way 外人可能永远继续下去的话

She walked along on the jagged ridge 她在坑洼不平的山脊前走过

She told me she was thinking of me 她告诉我她想我，

But every time I tried to take her away 但每次我尝试的时间来带她走

She alway ran back to the rocks and the trees 她是常常跑回岩石和树木

   

Everytime I see her face 每次我看到她的脸

On the street in the hollow of on the hill 就在山上的空街

Another time and another place 另一个时间，另一个地点

I feel her in my heart still 我觉得她在我的心脏还在

Everytime I see her face 每次我看到她的脸

On the street in the hollow in the bend 就在弯中空街道

I see her in my mind and then 我看到她在我的脑海，然后

I go down the road not taken...again 我去没有走过的路...再

   

Oh I went back there after many years 哦，我经过多年回到那里

So curious and so secretly 因此，好奇等秘密

As I looked on I held back a tear 当我看着我忍住了眼泪

The road not taken overcoming me 没有走过的路我克服

Oh I saw her she was sitting there 哦，我看到了她，她坐在那里

Older, thinner on the front porch 年龄越大，越薄的前廊

It seemed the light a little brighter there 这似乎轻亮一点有

Or maybe I still carried the forgotten torch 或者，也许我仍然抱着那个被遗忘的火炬

   

Everytime I see her face 每次我看到她的脸

On the street in the hollow of on the hill 就在山上的空街

Another time and another place 另一个时间，另一个地点

I feel her in my heart still 我觉得她在我的心脏还在

Everytime I see her face 每次我看到她的脸

On the street in the hollow in the bend 就在弯中空街道

I see her in my mind and then 我看到她在我的脑海，然后

I go down the road not taken...again 我去没有走过的路...再
