Sigh no more, ladies,
別再嘆息了,女子,
sigh no more, men were deceivers ever;
別再嘆息,男人永遠都是騙子;
One foot in sea, and one on shore,
一腳在海里,一腳在岸邊,
to one thing constant never.
從來不曾一心一意。
Then sigh not so, but let them go,
那么請別如此嘆息,就讓他們離去吧;
and be you blithe and bonny,
你重煥快樂與美麗,
converting all your sounds woe, into hey, nonny nonny!
將自己的所有悲泣,化作輕歌一曲。
