Sebuah dragoon ringan melintas di atas bukit
When the moon was shining clearly
Saat bulan bersinar terang
Well there was a little lady and she knew him by his horse
Nah ada seorang wanita kecil dan dia mengenalnya dengan kudanya
Because she loves him dearly
Karena dia sangat mencintainya
Chorus:
Paduan suara:
Dearly, oh dearly
Sayang, oh sayang
Well there was a little lady and she knew him by his horse
Nah ada seorang wanita kecil dan dia mengenalnya dengan kudanya
Because she loves him dearly
Karena dia sangat mencintainya
She's grabbed him by the nearside rein
Dia mencengkeramnya dengan kendali nearside
She has taken him to the stable
Dia membawanya ke kandang
Here is hay and corn for your horse, young man
Inilah jerami dan jagung untuk kuda Anda, anak muda
He can eat now he is able
Dia bisa makan sekarang dia bisa
And she taken him by the lily-white hand
Dan dia membawanya dengan tangan putih lily
Led him to the table
Memimpinnya ke meja
Here is cakes and wine for you, my dear
Inilah kue dan anggur untukmu, sayangku
To drink now you are able
Minum sekarang kamu bisa
She took the bottle into her hand
Dia membawa botol itu ke tangannya
Poured out the wine so clearly
Tuangkan anggurnya dengan sangat jelas
Here's an health to yours and to mine, she says
Inilah kesehatan bagi Anda dan milik saya, katanya
And you're welcome home, my dearie
Dan kau diterima di rumah, sayangku
And she ran upstairs for to make his bed
Dan dia berlari ke atas untuk membuat tempat tidurnya
Make it soft and comfy
Buatlah lembut dan nyaman
How nimble she jumped into the bed
Caranya gesit dia melompat ke tempat tidur
For to see if it was easy
Untuk melihat apakah itu mudah
But the light dragoon he ran upstairs
Tapi dragoon ringan dia berlari ke atas
Put his trousers on the table
Letakkan celananya di atas meja
How nimble he jumped into the bed
Caranya gesit dia melompat ke tempat tidur
For to do what he was able
Untuk melakukan apa yang dia mampu
They laid in bed and the clock struck one
Mereka berbaring di tempat tidur dan jam menyambar satu
Trumpets they was a-sounding
Sangkakala mereka terdengar
Her spirits they were high and her belly it was low
Semangatnya mereka tinggi dan perutnya rendah
And she ran home to her mammy
Dan dia berlari pulang ke rumah mamanya
Oh where've you been all this live-long night
Oh, di mana pun kau menjadi malam yang penuh dengan kehidupan ini
Inquired her anxious parents
Menanyakan orang tua cemasnya
I've been along with the light dragoon
Aku pernah bersama dengan dragoon ringan
Because I loves him dearly
Karena aku sangat mencintainya
