If I die young bury me in satin

若我英年早逝，请将我葬在绸缎中

Lay me down on a bed of roses

让我躺在铺满玫瑰的床上

Sink me in the river at dawn

在黎明时分将我沉入河中

Send me away with the words of a love song

用情歌中的诗句为我送行

oh oh oh oh

Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother

主啊，请让我化作彩虹，我将照耀我的母亲

She'll know I'm safe with you

她会知道我和你在一起很安全

When she stands under my colors

当她站在我的七彩之下

Oh and life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no

生活并不总像你所预料的那样

Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby

总是那样灰暗，尽管她埋葬了她的孩子

The sharp knife of a short life, well

短暂的生命像尖刀一样

I’ve had just enough time

And I’ll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom

我会穿着纯白的衣服走进你的王国

I’m as green as the ring on my little cold finger

就像是我冰冷的手指上的指环那样青涩

I've never known the lovin' of a woman

我从未感受过一个女孩的温柔

But it sure felt nice when she was holding my hand

但当她握着我的手的时候，那感觉应该会很美好

There's a girl here in town says she'll love me forever

Who would have thought forever could be severed by

A penny for my thoughts, oh no I'll sell them for a dollar

They're worth so much more after I’m a goner

当我成为逝者之后他们将更有价值

And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin’

也许到那时你才会真正听懂我唱的那些歌儿

Funny when you're dead how people start listenin’
