Walking on cobbled stones
漫步在鹅卵石路上
Little bits of skin and bone
瘦小的身影摇摇晃晃
Jumping on the tram car for a ride
跳上电车追逐夕阳
I can remember then
记忆中的旧时光
I was just a boy of ten
那年我才十岁模样
Hanging around the old keyside
终日徘徊在古老码头旁
Now all the capstans and the cargo boats
如今绞盘与货船都已消失不见
And stevadores are gone
码头工人已远去
To where all the old ships go
随古老船只消逝在远方
But memories just like the seas live on
但记忆如潮水永不休止
'Cause that was when coal was king
那是煤炭称王的年代
The river a living thing
河流奔腾着生命脉搏
And I was just a boy but it was mine
虽只是少年 却拥有整片荣光
The coaly tyne
煤灰染黑的泰恩河
This was a big river
这是条奔腾不息的大河
I want you all to know that I was proud
我想让你们都知道 我曾无比自豪
This was a big river
这是条奔腾不息的大河
But that was long ago
但那些都已远去
That's not now that's not now
逝去的时光 逝去的时光
My father was a working man

He earned our living with his hands

He had to cross the river every day

He picked up a union

Card out of the neptune yard
从海王星船厂驶出的船只
Mouths to feed and the bills to pay
养家糊口 偿还账单的岁月
Then came a time for him
直到他迎来
To sail across the seas
扬帆远航的时刻
And far away
奔赴远方
Finally when that war was won
当战争终于胜利
You brought him home and home he stayed
你带他归乡 从此长留故土
And when his days were done
当生命走到尽头
Under a golden sun
金色阳光下
You took him back to where he longed to be

Back to the sea
重返那片海
For this was a big river
因这曾是一条奔腾的大河
I want you all to know that I was proud

This was a big river

But that was long ago

That's not now
不复今朝
That's not how
那已不复从前
That's not now
不复今朝
The neptune was the last to go
海神号是最后离去的船
I heard it on my radio
我在收音机里听闻
And then they played the latest number one

But what do they do all day
但他们终日忙碌为何
And what are they supposed to say

If you you believe

That there's a bond between our future

Try to hold on to what we had

We build them strong we built to last

'Cause this is a mighty town

Built upon solid ground

And everything they've tried so hard to kill
