Dark as a Dungeon

Come all you young fellows so young and so fine
来吧，你们这些年轻而健全的伙伴们

我们能看到，你们的未来不在矿井中
And seek not your fortune way down in the mine
矿井中的生活会根深蒂固，深入灵魂
It will form like a habit and seep in your soul
直到将你的热血磨炼得黑如煤炭

这里暗如地牢，潮似露水
Till the stream of your blood flows as black as the coal
危险重重，欢乐难觅

雨水从未滴入，阳光难以射进
It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
在这深深的矿井中，暗如地牢
The danger is many and the pleasures are few
在采矿的日子里，我时常能看见这样一群人
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
把自己的一生全部葬送在这矿井中
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mine
像沉迷毒品的恶魔，依赖酒精的醉鬼

仅仅为了矿井中的少许财富
There's many a man I have seen in my day
这里暗如地牢，潮似露水
Who lived just to labor his whole life away
危险重重，欢乐难觅
Like the fiend with his **** and the drunkard his wine
雨水从未滴入，阳光难以射进

在这深深的矿井中，暗如地牢
A man must have lust for the lure of the mine
当我死后，时代更替
It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
我的遗体漆黑，化为煤炭

当我从我天堂的家向下俯视
The danger is many and the pleasures are few
同情当今的矿工，开采我的遗骨
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
这里暗如地牢，潮似露水

危险重重，欢乐难觅
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mine
雨水从未滴入，阳光难以射进

在这深深的矿井中，暗如地牢
Oh when I am dead and the ages shall roll

My body will blacken and turn into coal

Then I'll look from the door of my heavenly home

And pity the miner a-digging my bones

It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew

The danger is many and the pleasures are few
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mine
