作曲 : Conor O'Reilly/Méav
A mother lived by the North Sea shore
Daughters were the babes she bore
One grew radiant as the sun
Darkly grew the elder one
A knight came riding to their door
He travelled far to be their wooer
He courted both with gold and rings
But loved the younger o'er all things
"Sister, won't you walk with me
To watch the ships sail o'er the sea?"
As they walked the rocky shore
The dark one pushed her sister o'er
"Sister, sister, let me live
All that's mine I'll surely give"
"Thy bridegroom I will take and more
But thou shalt never come ashore"
Off she floated like a swan
The salt sea bore her body on
You could not see her lily feet
Her golden fringes were so deep
A minstrel walking by the strand
Saw her body float to land
When he looked that lady on
He sighed and made a heavy moan
He made a harp of her breastbone
Whose sound would melt a heart of stone
Took the strands of her bright hair
And with them strung his harp so rare
He brought the harp to the wedding hall
There to play before them all
When they set it on a stone
The harp began to play alone
The strings sang out a dreadful sound
"The bride her younger sister drowned
Now her secret you all know
Her guilty tears will surely flow"

[00:23] 北方海岸边的一位母亲
[00:26] 生了两个女儿。
[00:28] 一位白皙如同光芒万丈的太阳,
[00:30] 另一位却皮肤黝黑如同黑夜的阴霾。
[00:33] 一位远道而来的骑士来到她们门前,
[00:36] 他是她们的追求者,希望能娶到心仪的姑娘。
[00:38] 他爱慕闪光的金子与名贵的珠宝戒指,
[00:40] 但那年轻的妹妹却比一切都要令他倾心。
[00:47] 妹妹,和我出去散散步吧,
[00:49] 看看海上航行的船只?”
[00:53] 当她们走到崎岖的海岸边时,
[00:55] 那黑皮肤的姐姐一把将她的妹妹推下大海。
[00:58] 姐姐,姐姐,求你救救我,让我活下去吧,
[01:00] 你想要我的什么东西我都一定给你。”
[01:02] 尔的新郎我是要定了,其他的也要归我,
[01:04] 但是你可别想着能够上岸了。”
[01:16] 于是妹妹便这样如同天鹅一般
[01:18] 被海水托举着漂流。
[01:21] 她百合花一般的纤足逐渐不可见,
[01:23] 她金色的长发在深深的海底沉没。
[01:26] 一位吟游诗人在海滩上行走,
[01:27] 看见她的尸体被海水冲刷到岸上。
[01:31] 当他定睛看清那美丽姑娘的尸体,
[01:33] 不禁长叹一口气。
[01:53] 他用她的胸骨做了一把竖琴,
[01:56] 空灵的琴声连石头般坚硬的心都可以打动。
[01:59] 他取下她亮色头发中的几根发丝,
[02:01] 拧成绳后做成了这把珍稀竖琴的琴弦。
[02:13] 他把这把竖琴带去了婚礼礼堂,
[02:16] 为所有的来宾与主人演奏一曲。
[02:18] 当竖琴被摆放在石头上时,
[02:20] 竟自己开始演奏。
[02:41] 琴弦用令人惊恐的声音悲泣:
[02:44] 这新娘的妹妹已经淹死了。
[02:46] 现在她的黑暗秘密已经大白于天下,
[02:49] 她悔恨的泪水必然流淌。“
