Come and listen for a moment lads
诸位且听我道来
And hear me tell my tale
容我讲述这段往事
How across the sea from England
如何从英格兰远渡重洋
I was condemned to sail
被判流放异乡
Now the jury found me guilty
陪审团裁定我有罪
Then says the judge says he
法官当庭宣判
For life Jim Jones I'm sending you
吉姆·琼斯终身流放
Across the stormy sea
驶向惊涛骇浪
But take a tip before you ship
但启程前请听我一句忠告
To join the iron gang
若要加入铁链囚徒的队伍
Don't get too gay in Botany Bay
在博特尼湾莫要太过张扬
Or else you'll surely hang
否则绞索必将高悬
Or else you'll surely hang says he
他警告绞索必将高悬
And after that Jim Jones
可怜的吉姆·琼斯啊
It's high above on the gallows tree
高高吊在绞刑架上
The crows will pick your bones
乌鸦将啄尽你的骸骨
And our ship was high upon the sea
我们的船正航行在苍茫海上
Whhen pirates came along
突然遭遇海盗来袭
But the soldiers on our convict ship
但押解船上的士兵们
Were full five hundred strong
足足有五百之众
For they opened fire and somehow drove
他们开火还击 竟奇迹般
That pirate ship away
击退了那艘海盗船
But I'd rather have joined that pirate ship
可我宁愿加入那群亡命之徒
That gone to Botany Bay
也不愿被流放博特尼湾
With the storms ragin' round us
风暴在四周肆虐咆哮
And the winds a-blowing gale
狂风呼啸如刀
I'd rather have drowned in misery
我宁愿溺毙于苦海
Than gone to new south wales
也不愿去那新南威尔士煎熬
There's no time for mischief there they say
他们说那里不容放肆
Remember that says they
要牢记这训词
Oh they'll flog the poaching out of you
他们会鞭打到你戒除偷猎
Down there in Botany Bay
在那博特尼湾的炼狱里
Now it's day and night and the irons clang
日复一日 镣铐叮当作响
And like poor galley slaves
如同苦役船上的奴隶
We toil and toil and when we die
我们终日劳碌 至死方休
Must fill dishonored graves
却要葬入耻辱的坟茔
By and by I'll slip my chains
终有一日我将挣脱锁链
Well into the bush I'll go
遁入荒野深处
And I'll join the bravest rankers there
加入那群最英勇的亡命之徒
Jack donohue and co
与杰克·多诺霍为伍
And some dark night when everything
某个漆黑夜晚 当整座城镇
Is silent in the town
陷入死寂之时
I'll shoot those tyrants one and all
我将枪决所有暴君
I'll gun the flogger down
亲手击毙那个鞭刑者
Oh I'll give the land a little shock
我要让这片土地震颤
Remember what I say
记住我的誓言
And they'll yet regret they've sent Jim Jones

In chains to Botany Bay
