When first I came to Louisville my fortune there to find
初到路易斯维尔 为寻前程而来
I met a fair young maiden there her beauty filled my mind
邂逅娇美少女 倩影萦绕心怀
Her rosy cheek her ruby lips they gave my heart no rest
玫瑰面颊朱唇 令我心神难安
The name she bore was Flora the lily of the west
芳名唤作芙罗拉 西部的百合绽
I courted lovely Flora she promised ne'er to go
殷勤追求佳人 她曾誓言不离
But soon a tale was told to me that filled
忽闻流言蜚语 顷刻
My heart with woe
愁绪满心扉
They said she meets another man who holds my love in jest
他们说她又会情郎 将我的真心轻抛
And yet I trusted Flora the lily of the west
而我仍信芙罗拉 西境百合般纯洁
'Way down in yonder shady grove a man of low degree
远处幽暗林荫里 卑劣之徒藏身影
He spoke unto my Flora there and kissed her 'neath a tree
他对我芙罗拉低语 树下偷吻诉衷情
The answers that she gave to him like arrows pierced my breast
她应答他的情话 如箭穿心令我伤
I was betrayed by Flora the lily of the west
芙罗拉负我真心 西境百合变毒霜
I stepped up to my rival my dagger in my hand
我持利刃向情敌 步步逼近怒火烧
I seized him by the collar and I ordered him to stand
揪住他的衣领喝令 休想逃
All in my desperation I stabbed him in his breast
绝望中我将利刃刺入他的胸膛
I'd killed a man for Flora the lily of the west
为西部的百合芙罗拉 我犯下杀孽
And then I had to stand my trial
而今我站在审判席上
I had to make my plea
必须为自己申辩
They placed me in a pris'ner's dock and then commenced on me
他们把我押上被告席 开始审判
Although she swore my life away deprived me of my rest
纵然她指证夺我生机 令我不得安眠
Still I love my faithless Flora the lily of the west
仍深爱着背信的芙罗拉 西部的百合
