Dan sekarang teman-temanku sudah bertanya padaku apa yang membuatku sedih dan diam saja
And why my brow is darkened like the clouds upon the hill
Dan mengapa alisku gelap seperti awan di atas bukit
Run in your ponies closer and I’ll tell to you my tale
Berjalan di ponies Anda lebih dekat dan saya akan menceritakan kisah saya kepada saya
Of Utah Carol my partner and his last ride on the trail
Dari Utah Carol pasangan saya dan perjalanan terakhirnya di jalan setapak
We rode the range together and rode it side by side
Kami mengendarai ransel bersama dan mengendarainya berdampingan
I loved him like a brother, and I wept when Utah died
Aku mencintainya seperti saudara laki-laki, dan aku menangis saat Utah meninggal
We were rounding up one morning when work was almost done
Kami sedang membaca suatu pagi saat pekerjaan hampir selesai
When on his side the cattle started on a frightened run
Saat di sisinya ternak mulai berlari dengan ketakutan
Underneath the saddle that the boss’s daughter rode
Di bawah pelana anak perempuan bos itu berkuda
Utah that very morning had placed a bright red robe
Utah pagi itu juga telah memasang jubah merah terang
So the saddle might ride easy for Lenore his little friend
Jadi pelana bisa menunggang Lenore dengan mudah
And it was this red blanket that brought him to his end
Dan selimut merah inilah yang membawanya sampai ke ujungnya
The blanket was now dragging behind her on the ground
Selimut itu sekarang menyeretnya ke tanah
The frightened cattle saw it and charged it with a bound
Ternak yang ketakutan melihatnya dan menuduhnya dengan terikat
Lenore then saw her danger and turned her pony’s face
Lenore kemudian melihat bahaya dan mengubah wajah kuda poni
And leaning in the saddle tied the blanket to its place
Dan bersandar di pelana mengikat selimut ke tempatnya
But in leaning lost her balance, fell in front of that wild tide
Tapi dalam bersandar kehilangan keseimbangan, jatuh di depan ombak itu
“Lay still Lenore I’m coming” were the words that Utah cried
“Lay masih Lenore aku datang” adalah kata-kata yang Utah menangis
His faithful pony saw her and reached her in a bound
Kuda betina yang setia melihatnya dan menghubunginya dengan terikat
I thought he’d been successful, and raised her from the ground
Kupikir dia berhasil, dan mengangkatnya dari tanah
But the weight upon the saddle had not been felt before
Tapi bobot di atas sadel belum pernah terasa sebelumnya
His backcinch snapped like thunder and he fell by Lenore
Backcinch-nya patah seperti guntur dan dia jatuh oleh Lenore
Picking up the blanket he swung it over his head
Sambil mengangkat selimut, dia mengayunkannya di atas kepalanya
And started cross the prairie, “Lay still Lenore” he said
Dan mulai menyeberangi padang rumput, “Lay still Lenore” katanya
When he got the stampede turned and saved Lenore his friend
Saat dia mendapat penyanderaan berbalik dan menyelamatkan Lenore temannya
He turned to face the cattle and meet his fatal end
Dia berbalik menghadap ternak dan menemui ujung yang fatal
His six gun flashed like lightning, the report rang loud and clear
Enam pistolnya berkelebat seperti kilat, laporan itu terdengar keras dan jelas
As the cattle rushed and killed him he dropped the leading steer
Saat ternak bergegas dan membunuhnya, dia menurunkan si penunggang kuda
On his funeral morning I heard the preacher say
Pada pagi pemakamannya, saya mendengar pendeta tersebut berkata
I hope we’ll all meet Utah at the roundup far away
Kuharap kita semua akan bertemu dengan Utah di roundup jauh sekali
Then they wrapped him in a blanket that saved his little friend
Kemudian mereka membungkusnya dengan selimut yang menyelamatkan teman kecilnya
And it was this red blanket that brought him to his end
Dan selimut merah inilah yang membawanya sampai akhir hayatnya
