Era uma noite de Lammas It was upon a Lammas night Quando as plataformas de milho são adoráveis When corn rigs are lovely Sob a luz sem nuvens da lua Beneath the Moon's unclouded light Eu segurei Annie I held away to Annie
O tempo voou, com atenção descuidada The time flew by, with careless heed Até, entre a escuridão e o amanhecer ‘Till, between the dark and dawn Com pouca persuasão ela concordou With small persuasion she agreed Para me ver através da cevada To see me thro' the barley Para me ver através da cevada To see me thro' the barley
O céu estava azul, o vento estava parado The sky was blue, the wind was still A lua estava brilhando claramente The Moon was shining clearly Eu a coloco no chão, com boa vontade I set her down, with right good will Entre as torres de cevada Among the rigs of barley Entre as torres de cevada Among the rigs o' barley
Eu sabia que o coração dela era todo meu I knew her heart was all my own Eu a amei com muita sinceridade I loved her most sincerely Eu a beijei uma e outra vez I kissed her over and over again Entre as plataformas de cevada Among the rigs of barley Entre as plataformas de cevada Among the rigs of barley
Mas pela lua e estrelas tão brilhantes But by the Moon and stars so bright Aquela hora brilhou tão claramente! That shone that hour so clearly! Ela sim abençoará aquela noite feliz She aye shall bless that happy night Entre as torres de cevada Among the rigs o' barley Entre as torres de cevada Among the rigs o' barley
Tenho sido alegre com queridos camaradas; I have been blythe with comrades dear Eu tenho bebido feliz I have been merry drinkin’ Tenho estado feliz juntando dinheiro I have been joyfull gatherin money Tenho sido feliz pensando I have been happy thinkin’
Mas todos os prazeres que já vi But all the pleasures ever I saw Três vezes dobrou bastante Tho' three times doubled fairly Aquela noite feliz valeu a pena todos eles That happy night was worth them all Entre as plataformas de cevada Among the rigs of barley Entre as plataformas de cevada Among the rigs of barley
