Turun di taman willow, aku dan cintaku memang bertemu
And as we sat a-courting, my love fell off to sleep
Dan saat kami duduk sambil berpelukan, cintaku jatuh tertidur
I had a bottle of burgundy wine; my love, she did not know
Aku minum sebotol anggur merah anggur; cintaku, dia tidak tahu
And so I poisoned that dear little girl along the banks below
Jadi saya meracuni gadis kecil terkasih di sepanjang bank di bawah ini
Along the banks below
Sepanjang bank di bawah ini
I drew my saber through her; it was a bloody night
Aku menarik pedangku melalui dia; Malam itu berdarah
I threw her in the river, which was a dreadful sight
Aku melemparkannya ke sungai, yang merupakan pemandangan mengerikan
My father often told me that money would set me free
Ayah saya sering mengatakan kepada saya bahwa uang akan membebaskan saya
And so I murdered that dear little girl whose name was Rose Connelly
Jadi aku membunuh gadis kecil tersayang yang namanya bernama Rose Connelly
Whose name was Rose Connelly
Nama siapa itu Rose Connelly
My father sits at his cabin door wiping his tear-dimmed eyes
Ayahku duduk di pintu kabinnya sambil menyeka matanya yang remang-remang
His only son soon should walk to yonder scaffold high
Anak tunggalnya segera harus berjalan ke perancah yang tinggi
My race is run beneath the sun; the scaffold now waits for me
Perlombaan saya berjalan di bawah matahari; Perancah sekarang menunggu saya
For I did murder that dear little girl whose name was Rose Connelly
Karena aku membunuh gadis kecil tersayang bernama namanya bernama Rose Connelly
Whose name was Rose Connelly
Nama siapa itu Rose Connelly
Whose name was Rose Connelly
Nama siapa itu Rose Connelly
