There once was a ship that put to sea
曾有艘船扬帆远航
The name of the ship was the Billy of Tea
船名唤作"比利茶号"
The winds blew up her bow dipped down
狂风吹袭 船首沉浮
Oh blow my bully boys blow huh
吹吧 我的水手们 用力吹啊
Soon may the Wellerman come
愿惠勒曼早日来临
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
为我们捎来糖茶与朗姆
One day when the tonguing is done
待到收锚启程之日
We'll take our leave and go
我们将离港归乡
She'd not been two weeks from shore
离岸未满两星期光景
When down on her a right whale bore
突遇露脊鲸来势汹汹
The captain called all hands and swore
船长召集全员立誓盟
He'd take that whale in tow huh
定要将这巨鲸捕获 huh
Soon may the Wellerman come
愿惠勒曼早日来临
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
为我们捎来糖茶与朗姆
One day when the tonguing is done
待到收锚启程之日
We'll take our leave and go
我们将离港归乡
Before the boat had hit the water
船身尚未破浪出海
The whale's tail came up and caught her
鲸尾已掀起千层浪
All hands to the side harpooned and fought her
众水手合力掷出鱼叉枪
When she dived down low huh
巨鲸忽潜入深洋
Soon may the Wellerman come
愿惠勒曼早日来临
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
为我们捎来糖茶与朗姆
One day when the tonguing is done
待到收锚启程之日
We'll take our leave and go
我们将离港归乡
No line was cut no whale was freed
绳索未断 鲸鱼未逃
The captain's mind was not of greed
船长心中 非为贪念
And he belonged to the Whaleman's creed
他恪守捕鲸人的信念
She took that ship in tow huh
巨鲸拖拽船身 嘿
Soon may the Wellerman come
愿惠勒曼早日来临
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
为我们捎来糖茶与朗姆
One day when the tonguing is done
待到收锚启程之日
We'll take our leave and go
我们将离港归乡
For forty days or even more
四十余日艰难度
The line went slack then tight once more
绳索时松时紧浮沉
All boats were lost there were only four
四船尽毁唯余四桅
But still that whale did go huh
巨鲸犹在翻腾
Soon may the Wellerman come
愿惠勒曼早日来临
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
为我们捎来糖茶与朗姆
One day when the tonguing is done
待到收锚启程之日
We'll take our leave and go
我们将离港归乡
As far as I've heard the fight's still on
据我所知 这场战斗仍在继续
The line's not cut and the whale's not gone
绳索未断 巨鲸尚未离去
The Wellerman makes his regular call
慰藉者如约而至
To encourage the captain crew and all huh
鼓舞着船长与全体船员
Soon may the Wellerman come
愿惠勒曼早日来临
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
为我们捎来糖茶与朗姆
One day when the tonguing is done
待到收锚启程之日
We'll take our leave and go
我们将离港归乡
Soon may the Wellerman come
愿惠勒曼早日来临
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
为我们捎来糖茶与朗姆
One day when the tonguing is done
待到收锚启程之日
We'll take our leave and go
我们将离港归乡
