以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Now the weary week has ended
疲惫的一周终于结束
It's pay day on the job
今天是发薪的好日子
Let's go down to the local
让我们去街边小酒馆
And mingle with the mob
与大伙儿热闹相聚
You'll meet the dinkum Aussies
你会遇见真诚的澳洲汉子
Rough and ready as they are
粗犷豪爽不拘小节
With hard faces brown as leather
饱经风霜的褐色脸庞
Lined up around the bar
在吧台边排成一列
Someone is sure to greet you
总会有人热情相迎
You chaps I'm glad to see
老友重逢真叫我欢喜
Come on you pair of somethings
来吧两位好伙计
And have a drink with me
与我共饮这一杯
While the barmaid juggles glasses
看那女侍应生巧手翻飞
And the boss works with a will
老板也忙得尽心尽力
For he loves to hear the rattle
他最爱听那银钱叮当
Of the silver in the till
落进收银台的声响
Now the rousabout is busy
此刻的牧场工人正忙碌
He hasn't time to think
他无暇思考其他事情
And I'm sure he'd never hear you
即便你向他讨杯酒喝
If you ask him for a drink
我打赌他根本听不清
Oh the barrels that are heavy will be
那些沉重的橡木酒桶
Light ones very soon
很快就会变得轻飘飘
When the brumbies come to water
当野马群来饮水时分
On a pay day afternoon
正是发薪日的午后时光
Now the world is such a great place
此刻世界如此美好
Everyone is doing well
每个人都过得不错
And strange it is to listen to the
听着他们讲述的故事
Stories that they tell
感觉如此奇妙
Some are ridin' buckin' brumbies
有人在驯服烈马
Some are up north in the cane
有人在北方甘蔗田
Some are growling at the weather
有人抱怨着天气
And are wishing it would rain
盼望着甘霖降临
And there's old Jimmy Wooter
老吉米·伍特独自坐在角落
In the corner by himself
对着酒架上的酒瓶自言自语
Telling stories to the bottles
讲述着他那些陈年往事
That are standing on the shelf
仿佛它们能听懂他的故事
Oh he once was high and mighty
他曾经风光无限
Though forlorn he's looking now
如今却显得落魄潦倒
In a hat that came from nowhere
戴着不知从哪来的破旧帽子
And a torn old Jackie Howe
穿着件破旧的杰基·豪外套
Now the clock is moving onwards
时钟不停向前转动
The lightweights have their fill
酒量浅的已尽兴而归
But those with more horse power
但那些海量之人
Are staying with it still
仍在继续举杯
Some have already had it
有人早已不胜酒力
And are layed out in a swoon
醉倒在角落不省人事
They'll be grumpy when they wake up
待他们醒来定会懊恼
On a pay day afternoon
正是发薪日的午后时光
Hear the hen pecked hubbies saying
听那些妻管严的丈夫们念叨
What will become of me
我该怎么办才好
For I told my little woman
明明答应家里那位
That I'd hurry home to tea
会赶回家吃晚饭
She's going to play old Harry
她定会大发雷霆
And whale like one bereft
像丢了魂似的咆哮
When she digs into my pockets
等她翻遍我的口袋
And she finds there's little left
发现所剩无几时
But if he uses a bit of blarney
但若他巧舌如簧
She'll forgive him verey soon
她很快便会原谅
Couse I'm that the heart down pay day afternoon
毕竟发薪日的午后 我早已心花怒放
The weary week has ended
疲惫的一周终告结束
It's pay day on the job
今天是发薪的好日子
Let's go down to the local
让我们去街边小酒馆
And mingle with the mob
与大伙儿热闹相聚
And when you something doesn't
当你感到些许不适
If the girl may to the room
若那姑娘走进房间
A work to the new on a pay day afternoon
发薪日的午后 新工作刚刚开始
