Lemon Tree (Live in Japan 1967) - Peter, Paul & Mary
When I was just a lad of ten, my father said to me,
十岁的那年父亲告诉我
"Come here and take a lesson from the lovely lemon tree."
来从这棵柠檬树上长点教训
"Don't put your faith in love, my boy", my father said to me,
乖孩子千万不要迷信爱情 父亲这样告诫我
"I fear you'll find that love is like the lovely lemon tree."
我怕你最终醒悟爱情犹如此树
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
柠檬树秀颀漂亮花朵美丽芬芳
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.
可惜果实不能品尝
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
柠檬树秀颀漂亮花朵美丽芬芳
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.
可惜果实不能品尝
One day beneath the lemon tree, my love and I did lie
我与旧爱曾躺在这颗柠檬树下
A girl so sweet that when she smiled the stars rose in the sky.
她笑得那般甜美宛如升起在天空的璀璨繁星
We passed that summer lost in love beneath the lemon tree
那个夏天我们就在这树下坠入爱河
The music of her laughter hid my father's words from me:
她动听的笑声让我把父亲的告诫抛诸脑后
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
柠檬树秀颀漂亮花朵美丽芬芳
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.
可惜果实不能品尝
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet

But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.
可惜果实不能品尝
One day she left without a word. She took away the sun.
有天她悄然离去带走了我世界里的阳光
And in the dark she left behind, I knew what she had done.
我在她留下的黑暗里才看清她的所作所为
She'd left me for another, it's a common tale but true.
她弃我而去另觅新欢 这是个寻常却又真实的故事
A sadder man but wiser now I sing these words to you:
我因此黯然神伤但也多了一份智慧 现在又把这些教训唱给你听
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
柠檬树秀颀漂亮花朵美丽芬芳
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.
可惜果实不能品尝
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
柠檬树秀颀漂亮花朵美丽芬芳
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.
可惜果实不能品尝
