Dimana saja kamu, dimana saja kamu
my son, my merry son?
anakku, anakku yang meriah
On the seashore, on the seashore
Di tepi pantai, di tepi pantai
mother, my darling one.
ibu, kekasihku
And what have you been doing there
Dan apa yang telah Anda lakukan di sana?
my son, my merry son?
anakku, anakku yang meriah
I have been watering my horse
Saya telah menyiram kudaku
mother, my darling one.
ibu, kekasihku
Why is there blood upon your feet
Mengapa ada darah di atas kakimu?
my son, my merry son?
anakku, anakku yang meriah
My horse stamped with its iron shoe
Kuda saya dicap dengan sepatunya
mother, my darling one.
ibu, kekasihku
Why there is blood upon your sword
Mengapa ada darah di atas pedangmu?
my son, my merry son?
anakku, anakku yang meriah
I have stabbed my brother to death
Saya telah menikam adikku sampai mati

ibu, kekasihku
What now of you, where will you go
Apa sekarang kamu, kemana kamu akan pergi
my son, my wretched son?
anakku, anak malangku
To other lands to foreign lands
Ke tanah lain ke tanah asing
my dame, my darling one.
dame ku, kekasihku
When will you be returning home
Kapan kamu akan kembali ke rumah
my son, my wretched son?
anakku, anak malangku
When all the world to judgement comes
Saat semua penghakiman datang
my dame, my darling one.
dame ku, kekasihku
