Kami hanya saling mengenal lewat surat
I went to meet her off the train
Aku pergi menemuinya dari kereta
When the smoke had cleared and the dust was still
Saat asap sudah bersih dan debu masih ada
She was standing there and speaking my name
Dia berdiri di sana dan mengucapkan namaku
I guarantee she looked like an angel
Saya jamin dia terlihat seperti malaikat
I couldn’t think of what I should say
Aku tidak bisa memikirkan apa yang harus kukatakan
But when Adam saw Eve in the garden
Tapi saat Adam melihat Hawa di kebun
I believe he felt the selfsame way

I handed her up on the wagon
Aku menyerahkannya di gerobak
And I loaded up her trunk behind
Dan aku memasukkan kopernya ke belakang
She was sitting up there with the gold in her hair
Dia duduk di sana dengan rambut emas di rambutnya
And I tried to get hold of my mind
Dan aku mencoba menguasai pikiranku
Do you think that you could love me Mary
Apakah Anda berpikir bahwa Anda bisa mencintaiku Maria?
Do you think we got a chance of a life

We finally headed out of the station
Kami akhirnya menuju keluar dari stasiun
And we drove up to the home trail
Dan kami melaju sampai ke jejak rumah
And when we came to the farm she laid a hand on my arm
Dan ketika kami sampai di pertanian dia meletakkan tangan di lenganku
I thought my resolution would fail
Saya pikir resolusi saya akan gagal
And I froze as she stepped in the doorway
Dan aku membeku saat melangkah di ambang pintu
Stood there as still as could be
Berdiri disana semaksimal mungkin
I said I know it ain’t much, it needs a woman’s touch
Kukatakan aku tahu itu tidak banyak, perlu sentuhan wanita
Lord she turned around and looked at me
Tuhan dia berbalik dan menatapku
Do you think that you could love me Mary
Apakah Anda berpikir bahwa Anda bisa mencintaiku Maria?
You think we got a chance of a life

We had a prairie wedding
Kami memiliki pernikahan padang rumput
There was a preacher and a neighbour or two
Ada seorang pengkhotbah dan satu atau dua tetangga
I gave my golden thing a gold wedding ring
Aku memberi cincin emasku cincin emasku
And the both of us said I do
Dan kami berdua berkata begitu
And when the sun’s going down on the prairie
Dan saat matahari terbenam di padang rumput
And the gold in her hair is aflame
Dan emas di rambutnya terbakar
I say do you really love my Mary
Saya katakan apakah Anda benar-benar mencintai Maria saya?
And I hold her and I whisper her name
Dan aku memeluknya dan aku membisikkan namanya
Do you think that you could love me Mary
