Текст песни Banks of the Ohio (Wolfe Tones) с переводом

I asked my love to take a walk

To talk a walk, just a little walk

Down beside where the waters flow

Down by the banks of the Ohio

And only say that you’ll be mine

In the waters, arms entwined

Down beside where the waters flow

Down by the banks of the Ohio

I held a knife against her breast

As into my arms she pressed

She cried, «Oh Willie, don’t murder me

I’m not prepared for eternity»

And only say that you’ll be mine

In the waters, arms entwined

Down beside where the waters flow

Down by the banks of the Ohio

And started home 'tween twelve and one

I cried «My god, what have I done?

Killed the only woman I loved

Because she would not be my bride»

And only say that you’ll be mine

In the waters, arms entwined

Down beside where the waters flow

Down by the banks of the Ohio

Down by the banks of the Ohio
