Hear that lonesome whippoorwill?        听见孤单夜鹰的哀鸣了吗？

He sounds too blue to fly.              他听上去如此忧伤而不能翱翔

The midnight train is whining low       午夜列车声声低鸣，

I'm so lonesome I could cry.            我如此寂寞我哭了。

 

Did you ever see a Robin weep,          当绿叶开始枯死，

When leaves begin to die?               你看见知更鸟哭泣了吗？

That means he's lost his will to live.  那是他失去了活下去的希望。

I'm so lonesome I could cry.            我如此寂寞我哭了。

 

The silence of a falling star,          流星静静的划过，

Lights up a purple sky.                 天空点亮成了紫色。

And as I wonder where you are,          当我不知道你在何处，

I'm so lonesome I could cry.            我如此寂寞我哭了。

I'm so lonesome I could cry.            我如此寂寞我哭了。
