Lirik Ballad of Josie (Terjemahan)

Alternatif

It was Monday morning in heavy rain,
Itu adalah pagi Senin di tengah hujan deras,
When Josie went from our house, never back again,
Ketika Josie pergi dari rumah kami, tidak pernah kembali lagi,
Out beyond the hillside where the cattle stand,
Ke luar di balik bukit tempat sapi-sapi berdiri,
With her recent lover holding her right hand.
Bersama kekasih barunya yang menggenggam tangannya.

They both went out together in the Monday mist,
Mereka berdua pergi bersama di kabut Senin,
She never saw it coming, waiting at his wrist,
Dia tidak pernah menyangka, menunggu di pergelangan tangannya,
He struck her swiftly and she fell right down,
Dia menyerangnya dengan cepat dan dia jatuh ke tanah,
Flowers grew around her a body never found.
Bunga-bunga tumbuh di sekelilingnya, tubuh yang tak pernah ditemukan.

Whenever you're walking out in the snow,
Setiap kali kau berjalan di salju,
Think of poor Josie all on her own,
Ingatlah Josie yang malang sendirian,
Wherever those flowers stand out unknown,
Di mana pun bunga-bunga itu tumbuh tanpa dikenal,
You'll be steppin' on her gravestone.
Kau akan menginjak batu nisannya.

So tell me where is Josie and where's she flown,
Jadi katakan padaku, di mana Josie dan ke mana dia pergi,
You both went out together you've come back alone,
Kalian berdua pergi bersama, tapi kau kembali sendirian,
You sit so sadly with a face so cold,
Kau duduk dengan sedih, wajahmu begitu dingin,
You're no more paler though than the life you stole.
Kau tak lebih pucat daripada kehidupan yang kau curi.

Chorus
